-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------
Reporter: guest | Owner:
Type: bug | Status: new
Priority: normal | Component: Compiler
Version: 6.8.2 | Severity: normal
Keywords: | Testcase:
Architecture: x86 | Os: Linux
-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------
I tried to install
http://www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/stable/dist/ghc-6.8.2.20080410-i386
-unknown-linux.tar.bz2
on Kubuntu. It was reported to be build properly:
http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/cvs-ghc/2008-April/041915.html
but I get:
{{{
/tmp/ghc-6.8.2.20080410> ./configure
checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu
checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu
checking target system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu
Which we'll further canonicalise into: i386-unknown-linux
checking for path to top of build tree... configure: error: cannot
determine current directory
}}}
From other reports I got to know that this might have to do with the
custom 'pwd' of ghc installation. Indeed I get:
{{{
/tmp/ghc-6.8.2.20080410> ./utils/pwd/pwd
Floating point exception
}}}
