romes: The first Stage3 cross-compiler (i.e. a cross-compiled compiler) built by our CI:
https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/jobs/2421476/artifacts/browse
I'm testing it now.
They managed to get a riscv ghc crossed from im assuming x86. Could be used for bootstrap on our side 🎉
(Cross post from #GHC:matrix.org)

Alex | We already have a working setup for native RISC-V via x86 cross (which I think is in the official Nixpkgs cache now?), but an official RISC-V build could make it less fragile.
But I suspect that the new compiler is only viable for the latest GHC, which would take a while to become the default GHC? | 12:05:05 |

woobilicious | what's the simplest way to bump a package version? sbv package is broken and that version is marked as deprecated upstream. I guess overrideSrc is best here? | 04:26:53 |
peddie | out of curiosity, isn't sbv usually broken because its golden tests hardcode what they expect to be emitted for the name/path of the SMT solver, but in nixpkgs it emits the full path rather than just the binary name? did he finally fix this upstream? | 04:40:41 |
woobilicious | Never used it before, so can't comment on it, wouldn't we want to just disable tests instead? | 04:43:53 |
woobilicious | wait hold up we have a newer verision but its called sbv_12 hmm | 04:50:17 |
woobilicious | but that is also marked as broken lol | 04:52:16 |
woobilicious | note the only suppposed working version on hackage is v13.5 | 04:53:04 |
woobilicious | well, looks like the reason why our version is 11.7 is that that is what stackage lts uses. | 05:22:52 |
woobilicious | peddie: you might be right there, we don't mark it dontCheck by the looks. checks are also extremely slow. I've disabled now because I'm impatient lol | 05:33:03 |
