Re: Compiling GHC 4.02 using the *.hc files on RedHat 6.0 Linux

[Jose Romildo Malaquias]

I have adopted the following solution:

         $ cd /var/tmp
         $ tar -zxf /urano/downloads/haskell/ghc/ghc-4.02-src.tar.gz
         $ cd fptools
         $ tar -zxf /urano/downloads/haskell/ghc/ghc-3.02-hc.tar.gz
         $ ./configure --prefix=/var/tmp/ghc --enable-hc-boot                          
                                 
         $ make boot
         $ make all
         $ ./configure --prefix=/var/tmp/ghc
         $ cd ghc/lib
         $ make clean
         $ make boot
         $ make all
         $ PATH="/var/tmp/fptools/ghc/driver:$PATH" make -k install
         $ touch touch ghc/compiler/rename/ParseIface.o
         $ PATH="/var/tmp/fptools/ghc/driver:$PATH" make install
