I have an exe built by GHC in January 2014 (that's like GHC 7.6), and it is still running just fine on the latest Ubuntu. (In fact I have a daily cron job that runs it.) This is a data point for how long GHC default linking can last IRL. Historically my recollection of the only one breakage event in this regard was a libgmp version bump. And that was a bygone era, clearly before my vintage 2014 exe. _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list [email protected] http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
