'BuildPackageGHC=YES' in your mk/build.mk. You should also set
$(GHC_PKG) to point to your ghc-pkg command. Then build ghc as normal,
and in ghc/compiler say 'make install-inplace-pkg' to register the
package (this won't do any actual installation, just register the
package with your installed GHC).
It failed with
WARNING: error while reading directory gnore-package
ghc-6.2.2: file `ghc' does not exist
so I guess it didn't understand the parameters "-ignore-package ghc".
If I download a recent snapshot of ghc-6.4, compile it, set BuildPackageGHC=YES, how can I compile the package using that compiler? And will that package be compatible with my installation of ghc-6.2.2?
Thanks in advance, Lennart
