Hi!

GHC takes way too much space (GHC itself, not the closure):

Most of it comes from $libdir, specifically:

Can we at least (re)move those ‘.a’ files?

Thoughts?

In Guix they aren't used typically (everything gets linked dynamically);
at 1 GiB+ I think it's fair to get rid of them.

Thanks,

I think they’re used for ‘pandoc’.

Also, in general, we don’t want to make static linking impossible, so we
could move .a files to a separate output as for ‘glibc’.

If I recall correctly there was a discussion some months back about
Haskell binaries being smaller when linked statically.

Well, can we remove these ’.a’ files for the output ’out’ are create
another output, say ’lib’?

Hi,

> still current.

I’m not so sure about that. We link (most/all?) Haskell binaries
(pandoc for example) statically, so none of them should pull in GHC any
more. If they do, that’s a bug.

It’s almost impossible to untangle GHC libraries (and also GHC itself),
since there are circular references between config files, static libraries
and shared libraries. So I believe the solution above is the best we
can do right now.

Cheers,
Lars
