[Fedora-haskell] Installing ghc64 rpm in a local folder?

Hi,

I'm new to Fedora. I need a very new version of the ghc compiled with
--with-hopengl. On this machine isn't any ghc. So I started as usual trying to
install a binary first ghc.
I took the ghc64-6.4-4.x86_64.rpm package from the fedorahaskell site and tried
to install it locally (because I have no root passwd) with

~>rpm --install --prefix "$HOME/built" "software/haskell/ghc64-6.4-4.x86_64.rpm"
warning: software/haskell/ghc64-6.4-4.x86_64.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key
ID aedf7ebb
error: package ghc64 is not relocatable

How can I get a first ghc running? And is it possible to compile a new one in
the same simple way like on a non 64 bit machine? I never worked on a x86_64
machine before. 

Cheers
Patrick
