Summary: Bootstrapping fails at System/CPUTime_hsc.c
Initial Comment:
I have been attempting to bootstrap ghc-6.4 on a
Solaris 2.8/SPARC system
with no previous version of ghc installed. I'm
currently stuck at
System/CPUTime_hsc.c. The build fails at the following
point:
$ distrib/hc-build --enable-hc-boot-unregistered
[ many successful lines skipped ]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
==fptools== gmake boot -wr;
in /home/doughera/src/ghc/ghc-6.4/libraries/base
------------------------------------------------------------------------
touch GHC/PrimopWrappers.hs
gmake[2]: *** No rule to make target
`System/CPUTime_hsc.c', needed by `depend'. Stop.
I don't think the problem is specific to Solaris. I
run into the same
error trying to bootstrap on a Debian Linux/SPARC
system with no previous
version of ghc installed.
Any suggestions? (Other than finding a binary package
for this system, of
course. I know about that option.)
Thanks,

This item should be closed. It was based on my misunderstanding
of the build process. There is no documented way to build
ghc-6.4
without a previous installation of ghc either on the target
machine
or on some other machine. (I had mistakenly thought the
bootstrapping process could bootstrap an unregistered build.)
Thanks to Simon Marlow for his patient answers to my questions.
