Following yesterday's problem I deleted /home/simonpj/.ghc/x86_64-linux-7.7/package.conf.d/package.cache But now 'sh validate' gives this (below), complaining that the file I deleted doesn't exist!
But it wouldn't exist on a clean machine, would it. I'm very confused.
Thanks
Simon

/home/simonpj/.ghc/x86_64-linux-7.7/package.conf.d wouldn't exist on a clean machine either. Perhaps the existence of /home/simonpj/.ghc/x86_64-linux-7.7/package.conf.d leads GHC to expect /home/simonpj/.ghc/x86_64-linux-7.7/package.conf.d/package.cache to exist. I'm sure if you blow away /home/simonpj/.ghc/x86_64-linux-7.7 all will be well. Geoff
