I'm not sure whether this will fix your problem, but if you want to build ghc using a libedit in a nonstandard location, there's an easier solution than setting all of those environmental variables: just configure ghc with (for example) ./configure --with-editline-includes=/opt/local/include --with-editline-libraries=/opt/local/lib -Judah _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
