Hi, Denis wanted to install pandoc form MacPorts and got problems (below), because he has installed my ghc-6.8.3-powerpc binary. If my binary works you could download
http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/pandoc/1.0.0.1/pandoc-1.0.0.1.tar.gz unpack and do the runhaskell Setup configure runhaskell Setup build sudo runhaskell Setup install business (http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Cabal/How_to_install_a_Cabal_package) also for all missing dependencies, i.e. http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/zip-archive/0.1.1/zip-archive-0.1.1.tar.gz I don't know if or how this interferes with MacPorts. Cheers Christian port deps pandoc => pandoc has build dependencies on: ghc haddock pandoc has library dependencies on: gmp denis wrote: > Thanks Greg, > > fair enough. > Could you or Christian suggest to the owners of > http://haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_683.html > something along the lines of > > MacPorts users note: > MacPorts will use /only/ a ghc built with "port install ghc", no other. > > so the next guy doesn't run into the same wall ? > > Hi, > > MacPorts uses a known good binary ghc bootstrap compiler to > build ghc from source.
