Spoke too soon. The build went fine, but when I tried installing the
packages, I got the following error:
bash-2.05$ cd lib
bash-2.05$ make install-pkg
Reading package info from stdin... done.
Expanding embedded variables...done.
`' doesn't exist or isn't a directory
Unable to install 'hdirect' package for GHC - perhaps GHC isn't installed.
Try running ghc-pkg utility "ghc-pkg -a < /HDirect.pkg"
when GHC is installed.
I have GHC installed (from the Windows installer). Running the ghc-pkg
command manually didn't help. (Nor did using "HDirect.pkg" rather than
"/HDirect.pkg" - isn't the initial slash wrong?)
I'm not sure where to go next - I don't understand ghc-pkg, so if
there's any information I can provide which might help, let me know.
Thanks,
Paul.
PS In case it helps, here's HDirect.pkg:
Package { name = "hdirect",
import_dirs = [""],
source_dirs = [],
library_dirs = [""],
hs_libraries = ["HShdirect"],
extra_libraries = ["kernel32"],
include_dirs = [""],
c_includes = [],
package_deps = ["base","lang"],
extra_ghc_opts = [],
extra_cc_opts = [],
extra_ld_opts = []}
