I've built ghc previously and I assumed to keep it up to date I just did

From that error, I suspect you have a conflict in the editline package, and the compiler is barfing on the marker "vvvvvv" which is inserted by darcs. Strange...

If you weren't planning on hacking editline, it's probably easiest to just rm -rf the libraries/editline directory and do another "darcs-all get" to replace it with a consistent version. Otherwise, send me the darcs --changes of that repo and I can take a look at it.

Hope that helps, -Judah

Judah, Thanks for your help but now I'm getting a mismatch between ghc and ghc-pkg. I'm not sure how to fix this. Dominic.
