[Pkg-haskell-maintainers] Bug#635587: ghc: GHCi linker could not find libstdc++

[Khudyakov Alexey]

Package: ghc
Version: 7.0.4-4
Severity: normal

GHCi linker could not find libstdc++.so. Probably there are other 
libraries which cause problems but I stumbled only into this one.
Problem appears only with GHCi if program is compiled then everything
works just fine. This is probably because GHC uses ld for linking when
compiling and IIRC its own linker in interpreted mode.

Easiest way to repoduce:

$ cabal install double-conversion
$ ghci
>>> impot Data.Double.Conversion.ByteString
>>> toFixed 3 pi
Loading package bytestring-0.9.1.10 ... linking ... done.
Loading package array-0.3.0.2 ... linking ... done.
Loading package containers-0.4.0.0 ... linking ... done.
Loading package deepseq-1.1.0.2 ... linking ... done.
Loading package text-0.11.1.3 ... linking ... done.
Loading package double-conversion-0.2.0.0 ... can't load .so/.DLL for: stdc++ (libstdc++.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)
