Without doing any investigation, I'll say that i recently installed darcs and ghc on a 5.3 system without difficulties, so it seems weird that it would be disabled. However it *WAS* a problem trying to get it to install on 5.2 due to the ghc bootstrap binary depending on a version of a library that is not in 5.2. Either something has happened which means ghc is no longer working, or perhaps it was incorrectly marked as broken due to the issue on versions below 5.3? Though - I just noticed you are installing 6.2.1. 6.2.2 is the one I have installed. Have you tried updating your ports tree? Perhaps the issue, whatever it is, is fixed in 6.2.2. -- / Peter Schuller, InfiDyne Technologies HB PGP userID: 0xE9758B7D or 'Peter Schuller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>' Key retrieval: Send an E-Mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web: http://www.scode.org _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
