| | 86 | ==== Need libffi ==== |
| | 87 | |
| | 88 | GHC 6.9 now uses libffi, and so I needed to install it too. I Googled libffi, installed the newest version (it was released in April 2008 so I assume it's old enough to be the one used in 6.9), built and installed it on the host machine. |
| | 89 | |
| | 90 | Its header files are not installed into a system-wide include directory, so I symlinked them into /usr/include. Then the cd compiler && make boot && make step ran fine (though it took long enough running natively on my Core 2 Duo 2.8 GHz that I fear how long the emulated stage 2 will take). |
| | 91 | |
| | 92 | ==== make in /rts ==== |
| | 93 | |
| | 94 | This fails saying |
| | 95 | |
| | 96 | {{{ |
| | 97 | ghc-6.9.20080614: could not execute: /home/braden/src/ghc-6.9.20080614/driver/mangler/ghc-asm |
| | 98 | }}} |
| | 99 | |
| | 100 | There is no such file, though there is the script driver/mangler/ghc-asm.lprl. I tried making it executable with no results, but I'm not really sure what to do next. Any pointers are greatly appreciated! |
| | 101 | |
| | 102 | Of possible note is that I re-ran ./configure a while back while trying to get /compiler to make boot && make in an effort to make it find libffi. I doubt that would matter, but I'll record it anyway. |
