Hi,
I compared libraries/base/aclocal.m4 of the HEAD and 6.12 branch and
found the difference:
< [AS_VAR_PUSHDEF([ac_Search], [ac_cv_search_$3])dnl
---
> [AS_VAR_PUSHDEF([ac_Search], [ac_cv_search_$1])dnl
This was changed by patch:
Thu Aug 19 22:48:58 CEST 2010 Ross Paterson <r...@soi.city.ac.uk>
* fix cache variable name used by FP_SEARCH_LIBS_PROTO
I applied the patch to 6.12 what solved the problem.
But you won't even come to that point (compiling whole ghc and not only
base) without the patch for ticket #4252 which is missing in 6.12. I
reported this already with ticket #4402
(http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/4402#comment:3).
Cheers,
Mischa

Usually I get undefined references wrt iconv (similar to the below
post) not a failure at configure time.

Although I have seen seemingly spurious "Missing C libraries" errors
before (for example, when I tried building on windows under cygwin and
I got that same message regarding libs "rt" and "dl" -- which were
indeed present in /usr/lib!).
I am going to upgrade to ubuntu 10.10 today so I'll let you know if I
run into the same thing.

Hi,
I'm getting a build failure when I try to compile ghc-6.12
from the

----
ghc-cabal: Missing dependency on a foreign library:
* Missing C library: iconv
This problem can usually be solved by installing the system
package that
provides this library (you may need the "-dev" version). If
the library is
already installed but in a non-standard location then you can
use the flags
--extra-include-dirs= and --extra-lib-dirs= to specify where
it is.
make[1]: *** [libraries/base/dist-install/package-data.mk
<http://package-data.mk>] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2
----
I'm using a ubuntu 10.10-64 bit system with libc-bin and
libc-dev-bin
installed. I don't think the problem is a missing iconv
library. Maybe
the problem is in the generated configure script by the new
autoconf
version (autoconf version is 2.67).
I haven't encountered this problem, but I'm not using Ubuntu 10.10
yet. Please report the bug on the Trac so we don't forget about it.
Cheers,
Simon
Maybe someone can help.
