Ah, the build_extlibs.prl downloads the libraries from hackage and patches and builds them, LWP is a perl library to download things from web servers. You will have to install it via cpan or your distributions package manager.

Hi, I can build jhc compiler from source as long as I add "-hide-package container-0.4.0.0" and using "-package containers-0.3.0.0" in the Makefile.am I'm just having a problem trying to build the jhc libraries I get this error message:

Maybe a missing new file from darcs repository?
