installing ghc on Solaris without gcc
after having used ghc on linux and win32 for quite a while now I am stuck with installing the binary distribution on Solaris. The Solaris machine does not have a gcc installed. This is correctly detected by ./configure. However the eventually installed ghc still calls gcc instead of just cc. Eventually I made a symbolic link ln -s cc gcc just to see if this might work. Unfortunately this gives linker errors: bash-2.04$ ghc Main.hs compilation IS NOT required Undefined first referenced symbol in file PrelIOBase_heapOverflow_closure (command line) PrelInt_I16zh_static_info (command line) PrelPack_unpackCString_closure /usr/local/lib/ghc-5.02.2/libHSrts.a(RtsAPI.o) PrelFloat_Dzh_con_info /usr/local/lib/ghc-5.02.2/libHSrts.a(RtsAPI.o) PrelWord_W64zh_con_info /usr/local/lib/ghc-5.02.2/libHSrts.a(RtsAPI.o) PrelStable_StablePtr_static_info/usr/local/lib/ghc-5.02.2/libHSrts.a(RtsAPI.o) ... Is ghc supposed to work with cc instead of gcc? If this is so, what am I doing wrongly? thanks Sven Eric ___ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
RE: installing ghc on Solaris without gcc

This is correctly detected by ./configure. You really need gcc, sorry. I don't know what might have caused the link errors you saw, but it may be an artifact of doing linking through Solaris's cc rather gcc (actually I'm surprised it got that far).
