Hi,

By reading Matthias Kilian's scripts (thank you !), I successfully builded GHC
6.12.1.

GHC 6.10.4 didn't build:

  g    Lexer.x
  gmake[2]: g: Command not found
  gmake[2]: [Lexer.hs] Error 127 (ignored)
  RTS -K2m -RTS -agc --strict    Parser.y
  gmake[2]: RTS: Command not found
  gmake[2]: *** [Parser.hs] Error 127
  Failed making boot in genprimopcode: 1
  gmake[1]: *** [boot] Error 1
  gmake: *** [stage1] Error 1

But GHC 6.8.3 did. I then built GHC 6.12.1. The only problem was that the
build process doesn't find the iconv lib when it's installed in /usr/local, so
the lib/include paths have to be specified when running ./configure.

I then installed Cabal 1.9 from darcs, and cabal-install, still from darcs. I
used cabal to install hscolour, xmonad and xmonad-contrib, it worked
perfectly.

I thought it might be good to build GHC 6.12.1 with itself just to be sure
it's working fine before make a dist, but I now get the following error:

        `(map installedPackageInfoToPackageConfig conf)'

gmake: *** [all] Error 2

I tried to "ghc-pkg mask" Cabal-1.8.0.2, then Cabal-1.9.0, didn't change
anything.

Does someone know what's going on here, and what can be done to fix it ?

Regards,
