#3612: Installing the binary tarball requires build tools (binutils, gcc, etc.)
-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------
Reporter: matthijs | Owner:
Type: bug | Status: new
Priority: normal | Component: Build System
Version: 6.10.4 | Severity: normal
Keywords: | Testcase:
Os: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple
-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------
When installing the binary tarball (e.g.,
http://www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/6.10.4/ghc-6.10.4-i386-unknown-
linux-n.tar.bz2), you need to run {{{./configure && make install}}}.
However, configure does the full build-time set of checks, complaining
about the lack of binutils, gcc, and whatnot.
I'm trying to build a small system which doesn't have any build tools, and
I'd rather not install them just for satisfying configure :-)
