Excerpts from Colin Paul Adams's message of Sun Mar 29 09:29:43 -0500 2009:
I was getting errors somewhere in haddock about some ambiguous function, so I did a darcs pull to see if that would pull in a fix for the problem (unfortunately I didn't make a note of the errors).
But now the compile fails earlier with errors in deSugar/DsMeta.hs:
deSugar/DsMeta.hs:471:48: Not in scope: type constructor or class `TH.InlineSpecQ'
deSugar/DsMeta.hs:504:16: Not in scope: type constructor or class `TH.TyVarBndr'
deSugar/DsMeta.hs:538:50: Not in scope: type constructor or class `TH.TyVarBndr'
deSugar/DsMeta.hs:640:29: Not in scope: type constructor or class `TH.Kind'
etc.
Is the code in darcs supposed to be compilable normally?
And what can I do about such situations? Just report them here?
Sounds like it has to do with a template haskell update.
From the root of the source tree, do:
$ make distclean $ ./darcs-all pull -a Then, $ ./configure ... $ make ... like usual. Austin
