Right now, the Debian unstable package for GHC 6.4 won't install due to some conflict with libgmp3 (the package maintainer has been notified). I tried to compile the sources from scratch but found out that GHC requires a previously-existing version of itself to compile. I have hugs working fine, but configuring using --enable-hc-boot --with-hc=/usr/bin/hugs doesn't work (the configure completes but the compile fails very quickly). Has anyone managed to get this working? I'm actually somewhat surprised that there isn't a bootstrap-from-gcc-only mode available like there is in ocaml; what are the issues?
