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?
I suggest contacting the author of ghcjs, I don't know which branch(es)
of ghcjs are supposed to work and/or whether there are any
ghcjs-specific build requirements.
Cheers,
Simon
