Failing with the error 'nativeGen/MachMisc.lhs:80: unterminated argument list invoking macro IF_ARCH_alpha'. Also, _a lot_ of 'extra tokens at end of #endif directive' warnings appear. To me this seems like a problem with gcc 3.3 (or rather cpp) being stricter and not accepting haskell comments. -- Comment By: Simon Marlow (simonmar) Date: 2003-06-03 14:08 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=48280 Fixed, thanks. -- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detailatid=108032aid=748108group_id=8032 ___ Glasgow-haskell-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-bugs
ghc --make and missing interface files
Hello all, I have a file BinaryIO. This used to import a module HGetCharHack to work around an annoying problem with ghc5.04 which meant that hGetChar was blocking unexpectedly. However I see that this problem has now been fixed in ghc6 (ta very much, Simon) so I deleted the files HGetCharHack.*, modified BinaryIO to stop importing it, and then tried to compile it using ghc --make. However the thing fell over, as follows: Skipping ... (lots of files) ... Skipping UnionFind Could not find interface file for `HGetCharHack' (use -v to see a list of the files searched for) What I think is happening is that ghc --make is picking up BinaryIO.hi somehow, discovering that it refers to HGetCharHack, and complaining when it can't find HGetCharHack. At any rate, deleting BinaryIO.hi fixed the problem. What I think it should do is not look at BinaryIO.hi when BinaryIO.hs is newer, or at least not be so surprised when an obsolete BinaryIO.hi refers to non-existent modules. Oh, by the way, I don't think I've said thank you very much for ghc6, which in general is very good, and mostly works fine, so please take that as read now.

locating package.conf
After building GHC6.1 from CVS a few days old now, on Win2k with MinGW 3.2, I tested it in the build tree and it worked fine. After performing make install, the GHC completely stopped working because it couldn't find package.conf(.inplace). I eventually tracked it down to a self-described hack in SysTools.lhs that decides if it's installed or in the build tree by whether package.conf can be found in TopDir (which I'm assuming is (usu.) $prefix). Sometime in the past couple months all the files in $prefix got moved to $prefix/lib, the result being the installed GHC thinks it's in the build tree and dies when it can't find $prefix/driver/package.conf.inplace. I'm not sure where in the build system this was changed or what's the best thing to do about it (in general; moving lib to $prefix and copying gcc to $prefix [though that's probably due to the way I configured] seems to get it working for me.) I don't know if this is immediately related to the things Alastair Reid is doing or if this was known (I remember something about make install not working, but that seemed for standalone libraries, not GHC, also this seems easy enough to fix at least temporarily while a better solution is worked out.) This may already be fixed, but just not in the Win32 path through the build system. On a side note: Is there any reason why cygpath -w + some sed/shell hackery is used to get what seems to be the behavior of cygpath -m? I haven't had any problems with it, just wondering. ___ Glasgow-haskell-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-bugs

All formsd of bug report are welcome but I prefer either a bugfix or a cvs commit message. Ok, I had to apply the patch below in order to be able to build it and package it. I assume the HSHS is just a typo? The changes to the ghc-pkg related rules are because file installation and ghc package installation must be done separately when making a binary package. Let me know if you need a changelog entry.
