Hi Don, I tried to install the ghc 6.8.0 last year but failed for some reason. Now I decide to do it again, because I'd like to try some examples in <<Real World Haskell>>
Now I remember why I try to install it from source code, because the binary version has the following problem. %./configure checking build system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu checking host system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu checking target system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu Which we'll further canonicalise into: x86_64-unknown-linux checking for path to top of build tree... pwd: timer_create: Invalid argument configure: error: cannot determine current directory I know my linux distribution is a private modified version, which is based on RedHat 9.0 I guess it is pretty old version. I also installed many other software from source code. I guess ``timer_create '' is failed because of library confliction.
