RE: Problem with porting GHC

I am trying to port GHC to QNX machines. I followed the instructions in the document of porting GHC strictly.
Everything went well until I came to the step $cd H/ghc/lib $make -k UseStage1=YES EXTRA_HC_OPTS='-O -fvia-C -keep-hc-files'
I was given following error messages ------------------------------------- System/Directory/Internals.hs:1:0: Module `System.Directory.Internals' is a member of package base-1.0. To compile this module, please use -ignore-package base-1.0. -------------------------------------
I have tried to add the option, but then the compiler can not find Prelude.
My host machine is running redhat9.0. It also has ghc-6.4 installed. Will that be the reason why I got this problem when creating a unregisterised GHC.
This error message shouldn't occur, but looking at the build system, it might if you were bootstrapping using an older version of GHC (6.2.x?). Could you send me the complete output from the command that failed? Cheers, Simon

Yes! That is exactly my case. I have GHC6.2 as default. After I change it to my local copy of GHC6.4, this problem disappears. However, when I execute the last command of cross-compilation, I get another problem. $make hc-file-bundle Project=Ghc I have following error msg. ------------------------------------------------------------- echo ghc-6.4/libraries/base/GHC/PrimopWrappers.hs >> hc-files-to-go echo ghc-6.4/ghc/compiler/parser/Parser.hs >> hc-files-to-go echo ghc-6.4/ghc/compiler/parser/ParserCore.hs >> hc-files-to-go echo ghc-6.4/ghc/compiler/main/ParsePkgConf.hs >> hc-files-to-go echo ghc-6.4/libraries/haskell-src/Language/Haskell/Parser.hs >> hc-files-to-go tar czf ghc-6.4-i386-pc-nto-qnx6.2.0-hc.tar.gz `cat hc-files-to-go` tar: ghc-6.4/ghc/rts/AutoApply_thr.hc: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: ghc-6.4/ghc/rts/AutoApply_thr_p.hc: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: ghc-6.4/ghc/rts/AutoApply_debug.hc: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors make: *** [hc-file-bundle] Error 2 ------------------------------------------------------------- Since it is mentioned in the documentation, that we can ignore "rts error", and the gz file is successfully generated. I decide to try the next step. It it safe to do so? Thanks Liwen

I continued with the incomplete tarball of .hc files and didn't have any problems related to that (AFAICT), apart from having to unpack happy-1.15/happy into the build tree and run 'make -C happy boot all' before continuing the build. Regards, Thomas
