Make sure you have the newest versions of happy and alex installed, then follow the directions here https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building basically: clone the ghc repo ./sync-all get perl boot ./configure make -j # nb, this does an optimized build, so it take a while, edit the build to be a fast one, docs for that are in the build guide then test the ghc-stage2 in the ./inplace/bin folder -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8604#comment:3 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
