Earlier today I was trying to set up a Windows build bot for the 'network' package. That turned out to be quite difficult. Too much playing with PATHs, different gcc versions, etc. Does anyone have a repeatable, step-by-step process to install GHC and get a build environment (where I could build network) going?
No, but I used to (and sadly can't find it any more). I used to have a script called ghcsetup which built GHC on Windows, and importantly validated the setup was correct (the right gcc was first in the path etc) and took actions to correct it. I am sure there used to be a great web page on the GHC wiki, saying the exact steps to build (written by Claus), but I can't find it any more. Perhaps Claus knows where it has gone? Thanks, Neil
