Re: GHC 8.0.1-rc4 source tarball availability

err, i mean, sphinx was giving checking for version of sphinx-build... Sphinx (sphinx-build) 1.4.1 ./configure: line 9698: test: Sphinx (sphinx-build) 1: integer expression expected which version of sphinx for which python are we supposed to use?

Thanks Carter. I'm not so concerned with obtaining a working build. I'd like to be able to build with the Apple toolchain. I assume there are other developers who feel the same.

Can you elaborate on the "path to nm classic is wrong" ?

Cheers George

I'm having problems using the Apple toolchain to build this on Mac OS. Has anybody succeeded with the Apple toolchain?

First I get the error:

broken 'nm' detected, see https://ghc.haskell.org/ticket/11744. Workaround: You may want to pass '--with-nm=nm-classic' to 'configure'.

but after I try that workaround I get:

inplace/bin/deriveConstants --gen-header -o includes/dist-derivedconstants/header/DerivedConstants.h --tmpdir includes/dist-derivedconstants/header/ --gcc-program "/usr/bin/gcc" --gcc-flag -Wall --gcc-flag -Wno-unknown-pragmas --gcc-flag -m64 --gcc-flag -fno-stack-protector --gcc-flag -Iincludes --gcc-flag -Iincludes/dist --gcc-flag -Iincludes/dist-derivedconstants/header --gcc-flag -Iincludes/dist-ghcconstants/header --gcc-flag -Irts --gcc-flag -fcommon --nm-program "nm-classic" --target-os "darwin" deriveConstants: nm-classic: readCreateProcess: runInteractiveProcess: exec: does not exist (No such file or directory) make[1]: *** [includes/dist-derivedconstants/header/DerivedConstants.h] Error 1 make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make: *** [all] Error 2

Thanks George
