If no objection, I will give a try. note that the information on haskell.org is not always accurate and thus this shorter chain may not actually work. Please give it a try and send a patch. > I mean I propose to have both: ghc-x.y (with tests) and > ghc.x.y/bootstrap (without tests), it would ease the maintenance of the > Haskell ecosystem on several architectures. WDYT? I have a bad feeling about turning the testsuites of intermediate versions off. Yes, they take a long time, but then they also ensure the resulting compiler actually works (with high confidence) and we don’t silently propagate issues into the next one. Cheers, Lars
