I think it’s pretty safe to assume this limitation/problem affects almost nobody else, so not really relevant for most people.
Also: how do you run running Firefox and Chrome? Do you download and build the whole chain of dependencies and build tools needed to build and run those? And if so, why?
- badrabbit 8y agoI actually use firefox or chrome so that's a non-issue. Ghc is a dependency not the main app,therein lies my complaint. Depending on the use case I might complile some applications and by no means was I implying others should build from source as well. It's just that I have run into situations where a Haskell app pulls ghc and that needs a source build. If I ever build something in Haskell then there is a chance others might go through that as well. I never had that problem with any other language (even a heavy weight lan like java).
