RE: ghc-6.2 compilation problems
I'm getting problems building ghc 6.2. It fails building the documentation (which I didn't really want anyway). I'm using the gentoo ebuild script.
I've got haddock 0.6 installed. (That was my first error!) I'm hoping someone might know what is going wrong here. I'll report back to the gentoo ghc package maintainer.
The build output is like so: [snip] Fail: does not exist Action: openFileEx Reason: No such file or directory File: base/base.haddock
Hmmm. It's possible the gentoo ebuild is trying to 'make install-docs' without building the docs in the first place. Cheers, Simon

This has indeed been the problem and is hopefully fixed by now. However, the question remains what exactly the use of the variable NO_HADDOCK_DOCS is if it can be set to yes and haddock is still called at least once it in the libraries dir (I think to create the file index.html). Could you perhaps explain the intention behind the NO_HADDOCK_DOCS variable? Thanks, Andres
