Hi Greg, I can't test it myself because I don't have root access to our machines. Maybe someone else can? (Meanwhile I'll try to make a binary-dist that includes the extra-libs.) Cheers Christian Gregory Wright wrote:
Hi Christian,
I built a new bootstrapping compiler on Tiger/ppc, incorporating Thorkil's .text section patch. I've modified the portfile, but since I don't have a Leopard/ppc machine I can't try it. Could you give it a go?
Do
$ sudo port selfupdate $ sudo port clean --all ghc $ sudo port -dv install ghc > inst.log 2>&1
You might want to check after the selfupdate that you have revision 2 of the ghc portfile. It may take a few hours for the server to index the port and make it available by rsync.
If it fails, you can compress the log and send it to me. The "-dv" flags dump all of the MacPorts and build information.
There may still be a stupid bug or two since I can't test it myself.
Thanks, Greg
