I have no problem with that. I think this situation is unsatisfactory, though, I'll have to cvs-update my source repository in two, maybe three separate steps, to avoid checking everything out _again_. Peter Alastair: Thanks a lot for the detailed reply! I'll take a look at the build again; maybe I can get this problem fixed after all. _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
