RE: GHC 4.01 gmake all problem

Very strange - either/both of you fans of autoheader? Dunno about Jan or Keith, but I certainly amn't! And yet, I get the same error, and what's worse, on my first (attempted) build of the compiler. However, I did re-run configure at one point; is that the root of this particular evil?

RE: using perl version 5 now?

1998-12-02 Thread Sigbjorn Finne (Intl Vendor)
Yes, we're using Perl5 now. We could fix the config test, but I'd prefer if you'd try to convince your sysops to do mv /usr/local/bin/perl /usr/local/bin/perl4 mv /usr/local/bin/perl5 /usr/local/bin/perl or commands to that effect. Version 5 is the commonly used version nowadays.

Has anyone out there tried to install ghc (any version whatsoever) on a PC running Solaris 2.n? Results of keen interest. Slan, Alex.

Linker problem with ghc-4.01 (s-s-s binary).

An unsuspecting little program of mine crunches out the binary distrib of 4.01, with "library -lgmp: not found" (full output appended). Any clues as to what's up here? (Apologies if this is blitheringly obvious, or just a shoddy report, about to fall into bed...) Slan, Alex. _

Has anyone out there tried to install ghc (any version whatsoever) on a PC running Solaris 2.n? Results of keen interest. We have binaries for 2.10 on the ftp site, and 3.02 should work without any problems. 4.01 is untested on i386-unknown-solaris2, but shouldn't present any difficulties.

Hi there, Just at the end of the stage of creating an object file I got this message after which compilation was aborted. I have trimmed the verbose output (modulo pretty-printing) of ghc-4.01 to what I have appended at the end of this message. No Filnam.o was created. It seems to me something

Has anyone tried the ghc-4.01 binary package for sparc-sun-solaris2 with gcc-2.8.1? I have downloaded the package and I have compiled a simple haskell-program. All I get is a just a core dump (Bus error). I'm not sure if this is a problem with my sun or a bug in the binary distribution. Joachim

Picking up the wrong "ghc", perhaps? Hard to tell - what does 'ghc --version' report? 4.01 (which wasn't what I had intended, btw, and Simon has already avised is a Bad Idea -- more inter-machine configuration confusion on my part, sorry). What puzzled me was that it was just invoking
