Dear Developers, I am trying to compile the GHC on OpenIndiana (essentially Solaris 11). I follow the steps in http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/6.4.1/html/building/sec-porting-ghc.html#sec... and here is what I get: $ ./distrib/hc-build --prefix=/opt/gnu/ghcb --enable-hc-boot *** Building compiler... checking for gfind... /usr/bin/gfind checking for sort... /opt/gnu/bin/sort checking for ghc... no checking build system type... i386-pc-solaris2.11 checking host system type... i386-pc-solaris2.11 checking target system type... i386-pc-solaris2.11 HOST: i386-pc-solaris2.11 Can't work out build platform Not e that configure.ac contains a section on Solaris: SOLARIS_BROKEN_SHLD=NO case $host in i386-*-solaris2) # here we go with the test MINOR=`uname -r|cut -d '.' -f 2-` if test "$MINOR" -lt "11"; then SOLARIS_BROKEN_SHLD=YES fi ;; esac For whatever the reason I "need to update configure.in to recognise the new architecture, and re-generate configure with autoreconf" but I have no idea what exactly to add. There is no template inside to help me. Could you please let me know what should I do to proceed? Thank you in advance for your help/suggestions. A.S. -- Apostolos Syropoulos Xanthi, Greece
