url problem, missing GLUT, and building package ghc: msg#00093

Subject: url problem, missing GLUT, and building package ghc


perhaps some items got lost from my last mail:

- url problem on http://www.haskell.org/ghc/

Mailing Lists points to non-existent

http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/users_guide/introduction-ghc.html#MAILING-LISTS-GHC

- missing GLUT

the building guide might want to mention that one has
to add GLUT to the MSYS (in section 13.4), or configure will
exclude the corresponding package from the build.

in particular, the ghc 6.4 msi bundle I got seems to lack the
GLUT-2.0 package

- package ghc

I now seem to have a ghc from cvs head, and a package ghc in
ghc/compiler. From Simon's comment, it seems that trying to build
the package will not depend on a compiler build, so the package is
presumably built with the pre-installed ghc (6.4), but from the
sources of the cvs head. Is that correct, meaning that I should
register the package with the pre-installed ghc?

Cheers,
Claus
