I know how to use mk/build.mk and the ProjectsToBuild variable. I don't need hood, but make still should not fail (after ./configure).
If you don't want to build hood, then remove it from the tree. Did you perhaps check out *everything*? The right way is to check out fpconfig first, and then each of the projects you're interested in separately, eg. for GHC you would check out ghc, libraries, and hslibs. The section on CVS in the building guide has more info: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/building/sec-cvs.html Cheers, Simon
