You can safely ignore this. > Cabal finishes with: > > Installing executable(s) in /home/clemens/.cabal/bin > Installed dph-examples-0.7.0.5 > > If i try compiling the first example from > http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/GHC/Data_Parallel_Haskell > with > ghc -c -Odph -fdph-par DotP.hs > i get > ghc: unrecognised flags: -fdph-par The wiki page is old and badly needs updating. We removed the -fdph-par flag about a year ago. Check the dph-examples packages for the correct compiler flags to use, eg: -eventlog -rtsopts -threaded -fllvm -Odph -package dph-lifted-vseg -fcpr-off -fsimpl-tick-factor=1000 Also note that DPH is still an experimental voyage into theoretical computer science. It should compile programs, and you should be able to run them, but they won't be fast enough to solve any of your actual problems.
