... I have two patches that should fix this: ...
Thanks, I applied base-install-includes.patch. (Cabal-fix-installIncludeFiles.patch was already applied according to darcs.) However, in order to apply the patches I did a new checkout of GHC without the --partial. This seemed to have pulled a few new patches that break my build again. I fixed the first error (I darcs send the patch): ./compiler/coreSyn/CoreUtils.lhs 262 -mkAltExpr DEFAULT = panic "mkAltExpr" +mkAltExpr DEFAULT _ _ = panic "mkAltExpr" This leaves the second error when building base: Building base-2.1... GHC/Exts.hs:29:1: Not in scope: type constructor or class `IsString' If I import Data.String in GHC/Exts.hs I get the following error: Building base-2.1... ghc-6.7.20070502: panic! (the 'impossible' happened) (GHC version 6.7.20070502 for i386-unknown-linux): mkWWcpr: not a product base:Data.Typeable.TypeRep{tc r3eN} What can be the problem? regards, Bas van Dijk
