I tried again with the same result.

Is this a known problem, or do I have investigate myself?

Colin it didn't work. The tail of the output looks like this:

Colin I then tried the following:

Colin [co...@susannah ghc]$ ls libraries/bootstrapping.conf ls:
Colin cannot access libraries/bootstrapping.conf: No such file or
Colin directory [co...@susannah ghc]$ ls
Colin libraries/bootstrapping.conf.tmp
Colin libraries/bootstrapping.conf.tmp


Colin It looks to me like all I have to do is to rename

Colin libraries/bootstrapping.conf.tmp

Colin to

Colin libraries/bootstrapping.conf

Colin but I don't see why this is happening.

Your problem appears to be that you have set $(GHC) to

ghc --make -fno-warn-unrecognised-pragmas

$(GHC) should be set to the path to GHC, nothing else.

Cheers,

You're right.
I was using that prior to cabalizing my other project. I'll scrap it
now.
Thanks.
