I believe the above messages are not the reason why the build failed, since these are warnings. When I tried building (after fixing the autoconf 2.7x issue) it failed with: Running Sphinx v4.2.0 Configuration error: There is a syntax error in your configuration file: (unicode error) 'unicodeescape' codec can't decode bytes in position 1-2: truncated \uXXXX escape (conf.py, line 87) GHC fails to build with the newer version of Sphinx available in unstable. After fixing the Sphinx issue, I succeeded on building GHC on unstable again. I will upload a new version now fixing these issues. Thanks, -- Ilias
