Though, the resulting PS/PDF files will not have the expected symbols as dblatex does not know how to translate that. I can add the aforementioned flag for dblatex to {{{mk/config.mk}}} so the buildbots will not get choked on this any more, but it will not solve the problem of generating proper symbols for the PS/PDF versions of the guide. zardoz: Do you have any ideas how to fix that? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10509#comment:7 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
