Recent Stack LTS versions don't seem to work #636
Description
I installed ihaskell completely from scratch using stack LTS 5.2 on two different machines running debian x86_64:
stack install --no-system-ghc ihaskell && stack exec --no-system-ghc ihaskell -- install --stack && stack exec --no-system-ghc jupyter -- notebook --debug --no-browser --ip=<IP address>
I encountered the same error in both cases:
ihaskell: /home/peddie/.stack/snapshots/x86_64-linux/lts-5.2/7.10.3/lib/x86_64-linux-ghc-7.10.3/cryptonite-0.10-9z0j8QI27Av2VIWw0mEkTO/libHScryptonite-0.10-9z0j8QI27Av2VIWw0mEkTO.a: unhandled ELF relocation(RelA) type 42
ihaskell: ihaskell: unable to load package `cryptonite-0.10'
[I 22:50:20.392 NotebookApp] KernelRestarter: restarting kernel (1/5)
stack exec --no-system-ghc ghc-pkg -- list has no trouble locating cryptonite. stack exec --no-system-ghc ghci has no trouble loading and running functions from Crypto.Random.EntropyPool (to choose a random example).
My kernel.json file:
peddie@endeavour:~$ cat /home/peddie/.local/share/jupyter/kernels/haskell/kernel.json
{"display_name":"Haskell","argv":["/home/peddie/.stack/snapshots/x86_64-linux/lts-5.2/7.10.3/bin/ihaskell","kernel","{connection_file}","--ghclib","/home/peddie/.stack/programs/x86_64-linux/ghc-7.10.3/lib/ghc-7.10.3/","--stack"],"language":"haskell"}
This file was created with /opt/ghc/7.10.3/lib/ghc-7.10.3/ in the --ghclib field of kernel.json, but the error did not go away when I manually replaced it with the path to stack's libs.
EDIT: I forgot a critical piece of information: this issue does not occur when building with stackage LTS 5.1, which also uses cryptonite-0.10.
