0.0.7 (2019-01-07)

Release 0.0.7

This release introduces a new way of installing ghcup (and GHC and cabal in the process) with the infamous curl .. | sh pattern. See #36 for discussion. This is completely optional.

Features:

  • Add a bootstrap-haskell script, fixes #36
  • Allow to specify tags for ghcup install, ghcup install-cabal and ghcup set
  • ghcup list also shows tags
  • support installing on macOS aka Darwin
  • Improve detection logic for CentOS/Alpine/AIX/FreeBSD
  • Introduce a GHCUP_INSTALL_BASE_PREFIX env variable to control where .ghcup directory will be created
  • Add rudimentary support for Amazon Linux

Bugfixes:

  • Create missing haddock -> haddock-ghc symlink
  • Emit distro-alias inferred in debug-info output
  • Tweak exit code for ghcup install (If a GHC is already installed, we shouldn't treat it as an error)

Cleanups:

  • Simplify mkdir calls
  • Documentation improvements
  • Error handling improvements

API changes:

  • self-update was renamed to upgrade
