People, I need to install ghc-6.8.2 from source. As I recall, this needs Happy and Alex. Right? Among Happy versions, it is visible only a couple latest ones, and to install any of them, one needs Cabal. Installing Cabal is as follows: make install mkdir -p dist/tmp ghc --make -cpp -Wall -DCABAL_VERSION=1,2,3,0 -i. -odir dist/tmp -hidir dist/tmp Setup.lhs -o setup make: ghc: command not found. We have a `make' loop: ghc --> Happy --> Cabal --> ghc Old Happy was good: it did not require GHC -- as I recall. Do I mistake? Now I have to install GHC from binary, and it will report of library version mismatch ... and so on. Do not you think that, generally, something is going wrong here?
