'Cant do annotations without GHCi' when compiling 'Data.Vector.Fusion.Stream.Monadic' for Pandoc in Ubuntu 14.04 on ARMv7
Trying to install Pandoc as a dependency for RStudio in Ubuntu using ARMv7 arch (Chromebook).
Installed GHC using apt-get, then cabal from the source code. Updated cabal and ran $ cabal install pandoc. Quite sure this worked successfully last week but now getting:
[ 5 of 19] Compiling Data.Vector.Fusion.Stream.Monadic ( Data/Vector/Fusion/Stream/Monadic.hs, dist/build/Data/Vector/Fusion/Stream/Monadic.o ) ghc: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
(GHC version 7.6.3 for arm-unknown-linux):
Cant do annotations without GHCi
{Data/Vector/Fusion/Stream/Monadic.hs:104:19-33}
base:GHC.Exts.ForceSpecConstr{d r7Jr}
Please report this as a GHC bug: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug

I believe this is resolved if you use ghc 7.8. Could you try doing this who ghc 7.8 rather than 7.6? The issue is that prior to 7.8, once of the pragmas that let's you do the spec constr optimization required ghci. This restriction is lifted in 7.8
I'm marking it as a duplicate, but could you please verify that your problem is resolved by using ghc 7.8? You may have to use a ghc build that doesn't come with your distro.
