--- Comment #13 from Jens Petersen <petersen(a)redhat.com> ---
Thanks for following up.
(In reply to Pranav Kant from comment #12)
* Why the shared object file provided by the base package is
unversioned. I
think there is a bug related to this for all ghc packages, but I can't find
it, right ?
Right this is currently how ghc names shared libraries.
The filenames are actually "versioned" - it is just that the version
comes before the .so extension.
I am happy to open a bug for that against ghc but I hope it need not
block this review: it is not something we can fix in this package anyway.
But note that ghc does not have the notion of major/minor libraries
versions - every version bumps needs rebuilds anyway.
If there is nothing like that, we should probably version this, and
move the
unversioned one to the -devel package ?
I think it might be better to patch ghc to change how it names .so files:
need to think a bit more. Basically it is how ghc has named them
since it started supporting shared libraries many releases ago now.
* Why there is no -debuginfo package ? I think the similar reason as
above
holds here also for ghc packages ?
ghc-7.10 should introduce support for dwarf debuginfo I think,
so I decided to wait with debuginfo until then -
I don't think it is useful currently with ghc-7.8.
