(redirecting to glasgow-haskell-users) It is well known that the readline lib that comes with OS X is no good, and you need to use a replacement. A nice post from the blogosphere explaining all this: http://mult.ifario.us/articles/2006/10/17/ghc-6-6-and-mac-os-x- readline-quick-fix If that doesn't help, please post the errors that you get when building the readline package.

I am trying to build this version of GHC on Mac OS X. I'm currently using GHC 6.6. The build is failing with the following error:
ghci/InteractiveUI.hs:69:7: Could not find module `System.Console.Readline': Use -v to see a list of the files searched for. <<ghc: 310591992 bytes, 51 GCs, 4238510/9457140 avg/max bytes residency (4 samples), 26M in use, 0.02 INIT (0.00 elapsed), 2.11 MUT (15.73 elapsed), 0.31 GC (0.36 elapsed) :ghc>> make[2]: *** [depend] Error 1 make[1]: *** [stage2] Error 2 make: *** [bootstrap2] Error 2
So it seems I need to install the Readline library. But building the Readline library is also giving me errors on my system.
Just wondering if someone else has managed to build ghc-6.7.x on Mac OS X? If so, what did you need to do?
Cheers,
Ruben
