Thanks for the report!

It looks like missing symbol in libgsl, though reaction of GHC is quite strange but it may correlate with this GHC ticket: [https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10458]

According to the doc of GSL, this symbol is going to be removed in future versions.

Function: int gsl_sf_legendre_array_size (const int lmax, const int m)
This function is now deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

Is there any place where I can take a look at current libgsl in openSuse? I need those two:

[   26s] [126/243] cumulate gsl-devel-2.1-2.2
. . .
[   37s] libgsl19-2.1-2.2                      ########################################

[peti]

The sources for the gsl project we use in Tumbleweed are available at https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/devel:libraries:c_c++/gsl. Binaries are easiest to find from https://build.opensuse.org/package/binaries/openSUSE:Factory/gsl?repository=standard.

[paulrzcz]

Thanks. I will dig into it. Hopefully till the end of the week.

[poidl]

I stumbled upon this issue searching for undefined symbol: gsl_sf_legendre_array_size . See this issue: GuillaumeGomez/rust-GSL#30
Hope that helps.

[paulrzcz]

@poidl Thanks for the finding! That means that hmatrix-special package should be fixed somehow.

Similar thing seem to happen with Nix unstable (run on Gentoo):

<no location info>: error:

  (GHC version 8.4.3 for x86_64-unknown-linux):

[paulrzcz]

It's quite interesting that it fails on the same module on linux. It seems to be somewhere at dependencies of the library but I don't still know how to approach this bug.

[qrilka]

@paulrzcz my hypothesis is that on Nix it could come from gsl 2 which is used by default (though my simple attempts to use gsl_1 had also failed but if a different way - in Setup.hs segfaulting)
