New subject: Failed to build latest stable GHC on FreeBSD with Hadrian

      Hi Alexis,

This line shows the error:
...
| Configure package 'ghc-bin'
# cabal-configure (for _build/stage0/utils/haddock/setup-config)
# cabal-configure (for _build/stage0/ghc/setup-config)
hadrian: Encountered missing or private dependencies:
ghc ==9.3.*
A package had a constraint on the ghc api to only accept ghc == 9.3.*. 
Since you are trying to build ghc 9.2 this fails. The package in 
question is printed by hadrian in this bit of your log:
...
src/Development/Shake/Internal/Rules/Oracle.hs:159:32 in
shake-0.19.4-9f51719be46f95213676da51d6a6626f69f0cfa15957aab44867ff78b757df38:Development.Shake.Internal.Rules.Oracle
...
* Depends on: OracleQ (ContextDataKey (Context {stage = Stage0, package =
...
Package {pkgType = Program, pkgName = "haddock", pkgPath =
"utils/haddock"}, way = v}))
...
at need, called at src/Hadrian/Oracles/Cabal/Rules.hs:54:9 in
Notice the `pkgName` field in the `Package` record in the error that 
hadrian produced. It shows us that haddock was the cuplrit. Not sure 
why/how that cabal file got mixed up but I bet if you went to 
`${GHC_HOME}/utils/haddock/haddock.cabal` you'll find the constraint in 
question and should be able to switch it to `ghc==9.2.*` and rebuild 
according to the wiki.

Hope this helps,

Jeff

Hi,
As a complete beginner in regards to GHC, I tried to build GHC 9.2 as it
looked like the latest stable from git.I failed to build 9.0.1 before that.
After checking out the ghc-9.2 branch, I ran (following the wiki):
...
./boot
set LOCALBASE=/usr/local
./configure --with-gmp-includes=$LOCALBASE/include
--with-gmp-libraries=$LOCALBASE/lib --disable-large-address-space
hadrian/build -j
This failed with :
...
| Configure package 'rts'
| Configure package 'haddock'
| Configure package 'ghc-bin'
# cabal-configure (for _build/stage0/utils/haddock/setup-config)
# cabal-configure (for _build/stage0/ghc/setup-config)

The config.log is attached.
Any tips on how to proceed would be appreciated, thanks !
