Re: Draft 8.0 Mac build directions

Thanks for working on this! fwiw, my comments: 1. It would be good to provide a link to the current doc so we can compare with that. 2. Steps 12, 13, 14 and 15 are only necessary if you are building from a fresh git checkout, not necessary if you're building from source tree tarball from a release candidate , right? 3. If your path is set so that the gcc you want to use is one it specifies than you don't need either of the two (!!) step 16s, at least in my experience. 4. For step 17, in my experience, I don't have to use --with-gcc .... For with-nm the best way to specify is as Brandon wrote --with-nm=$(xcrun --find nm-classic) 5. After either 18 or 19 it would probably be good to mention the option of doing sudo make install Thanks for jumping on this, the old doc definitely needs updating Cheers George On Thu, Apr 28, 2016 at 7:24 PM Carter Schonwald wrote:

Feedback would be appreciated. And still need to mention cabal install hscolour :)

Pardon the noise and feedback would be appreciated!

Hey all: I've drafted some hopefully cleaner Mac build directions and I'd love some feedback on them

Nb: I think I forgot to mention the cabal install hscolour step, I'll add that
