Hi, I hope this is the correct list to ask this question.
I am trying to compile the ghcjs compiler. I am on ubuntu 12.04 and have ghc-7.4.1 installed (via apt-get). I am following the instruction I found here: https://github.com/ghcjs/ghcjs The first trouble comes with "git pull ghcjs". I get: remote: Counting objects: 42, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (9/9), done. remote: Total 26 (delta 22), reused 21 (delta 17) Unpacking objects: 100% (26/26), done. >From github.com:ghcjs/packages-Cabal * [new branch] encoding -> ghcjs/encoding * [new branch] ghc-7.2 -> ghcjs/ghc-7.2 * [new branch] ghc-7.4 -> ghcjs/ghc-7.4 * [new branch] master -> ghcjs/master You asked to pull from the remote 'ghcjs', but did not specify a branch. Because this is not the default configured remote for your current branch, you must specify a branch on the command line. So I am doing: git pull ghcjs ghc-7.4 Then "git branch ghc-7.4 ghcjs/ghc-7.4" gives me: fatal: A branch named 'ghc-7.4' already exists. And finaly "perl boot" fails with: Error: libraries/extensible-exceptions/LICENSE doesn't exist. Maybe you haven't done './sync-all get'? at boot line 74, <PACKAGES> line 57. What can I do? Thanks!
