Unsupported PrimOp: indexCharOffAddr#

Open mightybyte opened this issue 11 years ago • 3 comments

I'm getting this error when I run haste-boot on MacOS X 10.9.3 with GHC 7.6.3 and cabal-install 1.20.0.2.

This is a warning which basically indicates that some low level pointer stuff in base won't work properly. It's expected and shouldn't prevent haste-boot from succeeding. Do you still get a usable Haste install after haste-boot finishes?

Yes. I just discovered that it does still work. I had seen your notice somewhere saying to report unsupported primop errors, so that's why I opened this issue.

Yeah, it's definitely an issue. Just checking to make sure there isn't some previously unknown build error in there as well; the unsupported primop warnings are pretty prominent in the output, so it's happened that people have mistakenly attributed build errors to them rather than the actual cause.
