Only a week late, we are pleased to announce the Release Candidate phase for GHC 6.6.
Snapshots beginning with 6.5.20060831 are release candidates for 6.6
Download snapshots from here:
I've downloaded the source bundle ghc-6.5.20060918-src.tar.bz
After ./configure and make, I realized that I have no root permissions for installation. So called
./configure --prefix=/local/home/maeder/ghc-6.5
followed by "make" and "make install" only to find out that
/usr/local/lib/ghc-6.5.20060918/ghc-6.5.20060918
cannot be found by my /local/home/maeder/ghc-6.5/bin/ghc (in line 5).
What do I have to clean after "configure" with a new prefix? (I hope not everything. And I hope it works at all with a different prefix)
I think this is just because you tried to re-configure with a new prefix after the first failed installation, and the (slightly hacky) binary distribution Makefile didn't know to re-generate the scripts. If you unpacked the distribution and tried from scratch with a new prefix, it should work. Cheers, Simon
