People, Please, where the build guide (.pdf, .html) can be download from? Does the source GHC distibution include the build guide? Does the GHC user_guide include the build guide? If not, then -- why? How to build unregisterized ghc-7.4.1 from source? (For many years I read "registerized" in the GHC related messages as "registered" and wondered of why do they care for a user to register a build!) Thanks, ------ Sergei mechvel@botik.ru

Serge, I would recommend to start here: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building/Unregisterised Karel On 02/ 6/12 02:17 PM, Serge D. Mechveliani wrote:

Thank you. Probably, there is something like an error on http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building/Unregisterised : " To do an unregisterised build, add the following to your mk/build.mk file: GhcUnregisterised=YES GhcWithNativeCodeGen=NO SplitObjs=NO " Because in ghc-7.4.1, mk/build.mk.sample contains [..] ifeq "$(BuildFlavour)" "unreg" GhcUnregisterised = YES GhcWithNativeCodeGen = NO [..], and the user rather needs to find and un-comment the line #BuildFlavour = unreg Right?

Thank you. Probably, there is something like an error on
http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building/Unregisterised :
" To do an unregisterised build, add the following to your mk/build.mk file:
GhcUnregisterised=YES GhcWithNativeCodeGen=NO SplitObjs=NO "
Because in ghc-7.4.1, mk/build.mk.sample contains [..] ifeq "$(BuildFlavour)" "unreg"
GhcUnregisterised = YES GhcWithNativeCodeGen = NO [..],
and the user rather needs to find and un-comment the line
#BuildFlavour = unreg
Right?
Yes.
