Subject: ghc on macos
hi simon,
today i downloaded ghc using darwinports on my macos notebook.
installing ghc never terminates, unfortunately. it gets to "building
ghc with target all" and never finishes (this after a "sudo port
install ghc" command to the shell).
Try "sudo port -dv install ghc"; the "-dv" flags will let you watch
what
is going on. Note that on a reasonably fast system, e.g., a
powerbook G4
1.5 GHz with 1 GB RAM, ghc takes five or six hours to build. On my
old 800 MHz
powerbook, it took 10 hours.
The "port info ghc" command will give you the email address of the
port
maintainer (in this case, me) so you can communicate to him directly.
Does it really never terminate or just takes much longer than you
expected?
Best Wishes,
Greg
bob
