No i386 bindists for recent releases for alpine linux. #214

Closed phadej closed 6 months ago

phadej commented 6 months ago

AFAICS there aren't i386 alpine releases for 9.6, 9.8 or 9.10

is this ghcup metadata issue or isn't GHC producing i386 alpine bindists anymore?

In respect of the GHC project, I can't see any reference to Alpine Linux at https://www.haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_9_10_1.html#linux_i386, or listed at https://downloads.haskell.org/ghc/9.10.1/, for example. There is also information at: https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/wikis/platforms.

In terms of what the GHCup project documents, there is: https://www.haskell.org/ghcup/install/#supported-platforms - which refers to Linux (generic)/x86.

It never did. I always built them manually. I just stopped doing so out of laziness it seems. I think there also were some issues, but I don't remember them. So I'll have to give it another go.

I'd like to have alpine bindists in the future too. These make it a lot easier to create bindists (though I don't create 32bit ones), and test 32bit compatibility in libraries (which i care somewhat, as issues do get reported)

We will have to add that to the bindist CI then:
