Description
After #3184 is merged, there might be something left for OpenBSD support. Since navigating #416 is by now impossible, I've chosen to close it. Let me paste here this TODO list from @borsboom (#416 (comment)):
Steps remaining for official OpenBSD support:
- Have
stack setup
use bzcat/xzcat to uncompress GHC bindist instead of relying ontar
to do it (see also stack assumes tar is GNU tar, but that's not always true #2283) - Await a Stackage LTS snapshot that uses GHC 8.0.x and update the Stack build process (and integration tests) to use it
- Ensure integration tests pass
- Integrate into release process (I've already added a starter Vagrantfile in
etc/vagrant/openbsd-5.9-amd64/Vagrantfile
) - Perhaps remove old not-quite-working OpenBSD bindists from stack-setup-2.yaml, to avoid confusion.
EDIT:
Status: install should at least work for GHC 8.2.1 on OpenBSD 6.1, now that commercialhaskell/stackage-content#25 and #3184 have been merged.
