Error building GHC: can't locate import `Package'

18 Dec 2004

      When building the current CVS HEAD with ghc-6.2.2 on
Linux/x86, I get this error:

  [...]
  ==fptools== make boot - --no-print-directory -r;
   in /usr/local/src/ghc-current/ghc/utils/ghc-pkg

  ParsePkgConfLite.hs: can't locate import `Package'

It seems that ParsePkgConfLite.hs omits the "Distribution"
part when importing Distribution.Package.
