How To Install ghc-deepseq-generics on CentOS 7
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install ghc-deepseq-generics on CentOS 7.
What is ghc-deepseq-generics
This package provides a “GHC.Generics”-based ‘Control.DeepSeq.Generics.genericRnf’ function which can be used for providing a ‘rnf’ implementation. See the documentation for the ‘genericRnf’ function in the “Control.DeepSeq.Generics” module to get started. The original idea was pioneered in the ‘generic-deepseq’ package (see <http for more information). This package differs from the ‘generic-deepseq’ package by working in combination with the existing ‘deepseq’ package as opposed to defining a conflicting drop-in replacement for ‘deepseq’s ‘Control.Deepseq’ module. Note merged into ‘deepseq-1.4.0.0’. This package is now still useful for writing code that’s also compatible with older ‘deepseq’ versions not yet providing “GHC.Generics”-support.
We can use yum or dnf to install ghc-deepseq-generics on CentOS 7. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install ghc-deepseq-generics.
