GHC
PPA description
Convenient packages for GHC releases from http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ (plus cabal-install packages) which can be installed side by side for working/testing with multiple/older GHCs and/or with http://travis-ci.org
This PPA usually provides packages for all non-EOL'ed Ubuntu releases
(packages for EOL-ed Ubuntu LTS releases will be moved into https://launchpad.net/~hvr/+archive/ubuntu/ghc-eol and eventually removed); see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for a list of current Ubuntu releases and their EOL status.
GHC is split into 4 packages,
ghc-$VER (core package, contains ghc and executables such as haddock)
ghc-$VER-dyn (contains dynamic libraries for version prior to GHC 7.8)
ghc-$VER-prof (contains profiling libs)
ghc-$VER-htmldocs (contains generated HTML Haddock output)
The GHC packages install into `/opt/ghc/$VER/` so in order to use them, one way is to bring a particular GHC version into scope by placing the respective `/opt/ghc/$VER/bin` folder early in the PATH environment variable.
There's also a `/opt/ghc/bin` (& `/opt/cabal/bin`) folder which contains version-suffixed symlinks to installed GHC versions for convenient use with cabal (e.g. "cabal new-build -w ghc-7.8.4"), as well as symlinks managed by update-alternatives(1) which can be configured via
sudo update-alternatives --config opt-ghc
sudo update-alternatives --config opt-cabal
Note that `/opt/ghc/bin` also contains a default symlink for `cabal`, so it's enough to include `/opt/ghc/bin` in your PATH to get access to both `cabal` and `ghc`.
