Simon,
Thanks that's cured problem 1 but I still have problem 2. I've searched on
"ghc lreadline" and the only advice I could find was to install the
readline-devel package.
[dom@tility fptools]$ rpm -qa | grep readline
readline-devel-4.2a-4
readline-4.2a-1mdk
[dom@tility fptools]$
I did this but still got the same error.

OK, problem 1 is that you have to say 'autoconf' in fptools/ghc, as well
as in fptools.
The documentation may well be out of date on this point -- I'll check.
Problem 2, the readline thing is a regular gotcha that bites us at about
weekly intervals. I don't understand the problem, let alone the
solution, so I'll let Simon reply. I suppose it could be a consequence
of problem 1

| Simon,
|

|
| Aha. It seems that the libraries tree is not independent of the 'ghc'
| tree; this is because the 'base/GHC/' subtree is absolutely GHC
| specific.
|
| The quickest workaround is to check out ghc/ as well as libraries/,
and
| say 'make boot' in the ghc tree. Don't forget to do the 'configure'
| stuff.
|
| Also, compiling the libraries tree probably assumes that you want to
use
| the ghc in the same tree. You may need to add 'HC=ghc' to your 'make'
| calls.

| | Hi Dominic,
| |
| | There are two ways to add libraries: do it directly in a GHC tree
| using
| | our build infrastructure, or try to do it on your own. We tried to
| get
| | some interest going in developing a separate build infrastructure
for
| | people in your position (see discussions on the GHC lists), but that
| | effort seems to be stalled.
| |
| | Cheers,
| | Simon
