Missing configuration files in head?: msg#00021

Subject: Missing configuration files in head?

Hi,

I just checked out (totally from scratch) the head version of GHC +
libraries. There seems to either be some files missing, or some
"configure.ac" needs to be updated regarding what files should be there.

First problem is that the file "/mk/config.h.in" is reported as missing.
This seems to have been deleted from the repository as there is an old
version of it in "mk/Attic".

So I decided to see what would happen if I assumed the file was no
longer needed. I thus commented out the reference to "mk/config.h"
in "configure.ac" and tried again.

But now the configuration process stops when it cannot find the file
"libraries/base/include/HsBaseConfig.h.in".

A quick grep reveals that "HsBase.h" does include "HsBaseConfig",
so I assume that the file should be there. A missing cvs add?

I'm rather keen on building, so a quick response, if possible, to these
two questions would be great!

Best regards,

/Henrik
