Ok, I got GHC compiled but running it is a tricky. It has trouble finding package.conf. I found a reference to this problem at http://www.mail-archive.com/glasgow-haskell-bugs@haskell.org/msg05617.html. The work-around of doing -B does work (make sure you don't but a space after the -B though), but it would be nice for a better solution. Can this be fixed? The e-mail refers to the location of package.conf changing causing the problem. Michael D. Adams mdmkolbe@yahoo.com The following is a demonstration of the problem and work-around. $ ghc --version D:\cygwin\usr\local\stow\ghc-6-cvs\bin\ghc.exe: Can't find package.conf as D:\cygwin\usr\local\stow\ghc-6-cvs\ghc\driver\package.conf.inplace $ find /usr/local/stow/ghc-6-cvs/ -name package\* -print /usr/local/stow/ghc-6-cvs/lib/ghc-6.1/package.conf $ ghc --version -BD:\\cygwin\\usr\\local\\stow\\ghc-6-cvs\\lib\\ghc-6.1 The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 6.1 __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
