make html
Dear GHC supporters, I have made ghc-6.4 from source by binary itself (Linux, Debian 3.1): cd ghc/6.4/ghc-6.4/ ./configure --prefix=foo make make install But it is so hard to obtain documentation! I triedmake html (in the same directory). It reports ===fptools== Recursively making `html' in glafp-utils ghc libraries hslibs docs ... PWD = /home/mechvel/ghc/6.4/ghc-6.4 -- ... ... rm -f -rf users_guide/ stringparam base.dir users_guide/ \ --stringparam use.id.as.filename 1 \ --stringparam html.stylesheet fptools.css \ --stringparam toc.section.depth 3 --stringparam section.autolabel 1 --stringparam section.label.includes.component.label 1 \ /html/chunk.xsl users_guide.xml make[3]: stringparam: Command not found ... The user has managed to make GHC: a big deal. And now has problems with making docs. This looks strange. Why not provide, say, a couple of ready .ps files for user guide and library guide? And if it is .html, let them be ready .html files. ?

It *is* hard to build the documentation, but luckily ghc releases are also accompanied by documentation releases. Some useful docs for 6.4 are at: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/documentation.html including: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/libraries.html.tar.gz http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/users_guide.ps.gz Cheers, Don ___ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users

The problem was that I could not find these .gz archives by following the www references. I wonder what I was missing. Now, as I read your letter, I go to .../docs/latest/ and observe them.

Make sure that you have libxslt on your system, in a location where ./configure can find it. ___ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users

The printable documentation is linked from the documentation page: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/documentation.html.

I see now! I am sorry for disturbance. I was looking at this page and somehow stupidly missed these archive links. - Serge ___ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
ghc HEAD 'make html' problems
I can't build the library's Haddock documentation anymore: the process fails claiming that Control/Arrow-raw.hs would be missing. I've had this problem for a while now. Does anybody else see this?

No solution, but observe that if you do this: cd libraries/base make Control/Arrow-raw.hs No Arrow-raw.hs file is created, although there is no error either.

This was due to a bug in GHC introduced a few days ago and fixed yesterday. Please try again.
