Dear Developers,
I am trying to compile the GHC on OpenIndiana (essentially Solaris
11). I follow the steps in
http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/6.4.1/html/building/sec-porting-ghc.html#sec-booting-from-hc
and here is what I get:
$ ./distrib/hc-build --prefix=/opt/gnu/ghcb --enable-hc-boot
*** Building compiler...
checking for gfind... /usr/bin/gfind
checking for sort... /opt/gnu/bin/sort
checking for ghc... no
checking build system type... i386-pc-solaris2.11
checking host system type... i386-pc-solaris2.11
checking target system type... i386-pc-solaris2.11
HOST: i386-pc-solaris2.11
Can't work out build platform
Not e that configure.ac contains a section on Solaris:
SOLARIS_BROKEN_SHLD=NO
case $host in
i386-*-solaris2)
# here we go with the test
MINOR=`uname -r|cut -d '.' -f 2-`
if test "$MINOR" -lt "11"; then
SOLARIS_BROKEN_SHLD=YES
fi
;;
esac
For whatever the reason I "need to update configure.in to recognise
the new architecture, and re-generate configure with autoreconf"
but I have no idea what exactly to add. There is no template inside to
help me. Could you please let me know what should I do to
proceed?
Thank you in advance for your help/suggestions.
A.S.
