    <p>I am trying to install the Haskell Platform on Linux for the first time (I'm also a fairly new Linux user). The victim system is a fresh Red Hat system. And everything involved here should be 64 bit.</p> <p>The directions at the platform website [1] indicate that I need a ghc7.0.3 to boostrap things. They provide a link to a generic binary of ghc-7.0.3 to do this. I fetched this and ran</p> <pre><code>$ ./configure ... $ make install ... </code></pre> <p>as per the directions without incident (it is a binary, so no compilation needed) However, when I tried to run ghci I get the output.</p> <pre><code>$ ghci GHCi, version 7.0.3: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help Loading package ghc-prim ... linking ... done. Loading package integer-gmp ... &lt;command line&gt;: can't load .so/.DLL for: gmp (libgmp.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory) </code></pre> <p>For some reason ghci cannot find libgmp.so. Running ghci ultimately invokes</p> <pre><code> /usr/local/lib/ghc-7.0.3/ghc </code></pre> <p>with a mess of options. I checked the dependencies via ldd</p> <pre><code>$ ldd /usr/local/lib/ghc-7.0.3/ghc linux-vdso.so.1 =&gt; (0x00007fffe5f5c000) libncursesw.so.5 =&gt; /lib64/libncursesw.so.5 (0x0000003ee7000000) librt.so.1 =&gt; /lib64/librt.so.1 (0x0000003ee5800000) libutil.so.1 =&gt; /lib64/libutil.so.1 (0x0000003ef3000000) libdl.so.2 =&gt; /lib64/libdl.so.2 (0x0000003ee5000000) libgmp.so.3 =&gt; /usr/lib64/libgmp.so.3 (0x0000003ee4400000) libm.so.6 =&gt; /lib64/libm.so.6 (0x0000003ee4c00000) libpthread.so.0 =&gt; /lib64/libpthread.so.0 (0x0000003ee5400000) libc.so.6 =&gt; /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x0000003ee4800000) libtinfo.so.5 =&gt; /lib64/libtinfo.so.5 (0x0000003ef3400000) /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x0000003ee4000000) </code></pre> <p>and it shows that it foud libgmp. libgmp is in /usr/local/lib and /usr/local/lib64. I am not sure how to get further with this. Any suggestions?</p> <p>[1] <a href="http://hackage.haskell.org/platform/linux.html" rel="noreferrer">http://hackage.haskell.org/platform/linux.html</a></p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
