* Get the package to pass the ghc tests (currently it does not)
* Get the package to be able to build a version of darcs that works
(because darcs is the most-desired haskell package, almost always
needed by haskell users and needed by others to access code from the
haskell world).

How to build an HC archive
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
It's basically the same as the `Porting Guide
|
|
<http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building/Porting>`_, plus
|
|
some minor tweaks.
|
|
|
|
Extract the source archive and duplicate the source tree, one for
|
|
``-target`` and one for ``-host``::
|
|
|
|
$ tar jxf ghc-{VERSION}-src.tar.bz2
|
|
$ cp -r ghc-{VERSION} ghc-{VERSION}-target
|
|
$ mv ghc-{VERSION} ghc-{VERSION}-host
|
|
|
|
Build some configuration files::
|
|
|
|
$ cd ghc-{VERSION}-target
|
|
$ ln -s /bin/pwd utils/ghc-pwd/ghc-pwd
|
|
$ ./configure --enable-hc-boot
|
|
$ echo "INTEGER_LIBRARY = integer-simple" > mk/build.mk
|
|
$ gmake bootstrapping-files
|
|
$ cd ..
|
|
|
|
Run ``./configure`` on the host tree::
|
|
|
|
$ cd ghc-{VERSION}-host
|
|
$ ./configure \
|
|
--with-iconv-includes=/usr/pkg/include \
|
|
--with-iconv-libraries=/usr/pkg/lib
|
|
|
|
Then create ``ghc-{VERSION}-host/mk/build.mk`` with the following
|
|
contents::
|
|
|
|
PORTING_HOST = YES
|
|
GhcUnregisterised = YES
|
|
GhcLibHcOpts = -O -fvia-C -keep-hc-files
|
|
GhcRtsHcOpts = -keep-hc-files
|
|
GhcLibWays = v
|
|
GhcRTSWays =
|
|
SplitObjs = NO
|
|
GhcWithNativeCodeGen = NO
|
|
GhcWithInterpreter = NO
|
|
GhcStage1HcOpts = -O
|
|
GhcStage2HcOpts = -O -fvia-C -keep-hc-files
|
|
SRC_HC_OPTS += -H32m
|
|
GhcWithSMP = NO
|
|
utils/ghc-pkg_dist-install_v_HC_OPTS += -keep-hc-files
|
|
|
|
INTEGER_LIBRARY = integer-simple
|
|
libraries/terminfo_CONFIGURE_OPTS += \
|
|
--configure-option=--with-curses-includes=/usr/pkg/include \
|
|
--configure-option=--with-curses-libraries=/usr/pkg/lib
|
|
|
|
Copy some configuration files from the ``-target`` tree::
|
|
|
|
$ cp ../ghc-{VERSION}-target/includes/{ghcautoconf.h,DerivedConstants.h,GHCConstants.h} includes/
|
|
|
|
Build it::
|
|
|
|
$ gmake
|
|
|
|
Create an intermediate tarball::
|
|
|
|
$ rm -f list mkfiles boot.tar.gz
|
|
$ find . -name "*.hi" >> list
|
|
$ find . -name "*.hc" >> list
|
|
$ find . -name "*_stub.c" >> list
|
|
$ find . -name "*_stub.h" >> list
|
|
$ find . -name package-data.mk >> list
|
|
$ find . -name package.conf.d >> list
|
|
$ find . -name package.conf.inplace >> list
|
|
$ ls compiler/stage?/build/Config.hs >> list
|
|
$ echo compiler/prelude/primops.txt >> list
|
|
$ ls compiler/primop-*.hs-incl >> list
|
|
$ find . -name .depend | sed -e 's/^/mkdir -p `dirname /' -e 's/$/`/' >> mkfiles
|
|
$ find . -name .depend | sed "s/^/touch /" >> mkfiles
|
|
$ echo mkfiles >> list
|
|
$ tar -zcf boot.tar.gz -T list
|
|
|
|
Then extract it again, in a different directory::
|
|
|
|
$ mkdir ghc-{VERSION}
|
|
$ cd ghc-{VERSION}
|
|
$ tar zxf ../boot.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
Modify hard-coded paths in inplace ``.conf`` files, and then
|
|
re-archive the HC tree::
|
|
|
|
$ gsed -i.bak \
|
|
-e 's#/usr/pkg#[[PREFIX]]#g' \
|
|
-e 's#'`dirname \`pwd\``'#[[GHC_SOURCE_PATH]]#g' \
|
|
inplace/lib/package.conf.d/*.conf \
|
|
*/*/package-data.mk \
|
|
*/*/*/package-data.mk
|
|
$ cd ..
|
|
$ tar jcf ghc-{VERSION}-boot-{PLATFORM}.tar.bz2 ghc-{VERSION}
|
|
|
|
Done. Upload the archive to some host and add it to the ``Makefile``.
