Corion, Thanks for the pointer. Now my machine can recognize the latest GHC. But I still encounter such problem. Any idea why?

The output is fairly clear: `make: /home/neversaint/.ghc/bin/hsc2hs-6.4.1: Command not found` [download] So, there seems to be no file under the name `/home/neversaint/.ghc/bin/hsc2hs-6.4.1`, or the file is not executable. Most likely your installation of `ghc` is not complete or that tool needs to be built manually. I'm no expert in compiling and installing Pugs, so I recommend you take your problems to the maintainers of Pugs.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

wild guess, since I don't know about your environment and I'm also not proficient in building pugs... Seems like ghc is living in `~/.ghc/bin`. You've set GHC=`which ghc-6.4.1` export GHC cpan Pugs [download] according to Corion's advice. Now the building system is looking for `hsc2hs-6.4.1` - provide it. Look for hsc2hs in `~/.ghc/bin` and make a symlink to it as `hsc2hs-6.4.1` Or undefine the environment variable `GHC` and prepend your haskell directory to your path: `PATH=~/.ghc/bin:$PATH` so that the right haskell compiler is found (and the plain `hsc2hs`). Hope that's close to accurate and helpful ;-) --shmem _($_=" "x(1<<5)."?\n".q·/)Oo.

Dear shmem, Look for hsc2hs in ~/.ghc/bin and make a symlink to it as hsc2hs-6.4.1 What's the command with symlink to do that? Sorry, I'm not experienced with symlink. Or undefine the environment variable GHC and prepend your haskell directory to your path: PATH=~/.ghc/bin:$PATH so that the right haskell compiler is found (and the plain hsc2hs). I already have that in my .bash_profile: `export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/.octave/bin:$HOME/.ghc/bin:` [download] And my ~/.ghc/bin directory has this: [neversaint@voyager bin]$ pwd /home/neversaint/.ghc/bin [neversaint@voyager bin]$ ll -h total 700K lrwxrwxrwx 1 neversaint neversaint 9 Oct 18 17:28 ghc -> ghc-6.4.1 -rwxr-xr-x 1 neversaint neversaint 334 Oct 18 17:28 ghc-6.4.1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 neversaint neversaint 10 Oct 18 17:28 ghci -> ghci-6.4 +.1 -rwxr-xr-x 1 neversaint neversaint 349 Oct 18 17:28 ghci-6.4.1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 neversaint neversaint 13 Oct 18 17:28 ghc-pkg -> ghc-p +kg-6.4.1 -rwxr-xr-x 1 neversaint neversaint 373 Oct 18 17:28 ghc-pkg-6.4.1 -rwxr-xr-x 1 neversaint neversaint 7.2K Oct 18 17:28 ghcprof -rwxr-xr-x 1 neversaint neversaint 33K Oct 18 17:28 hp2ps -rwxr-xr-x 1 neversaint neversaint 583 Oct 18 17:28 hsc2hs -rwxr-xr-x 1 neversaint neversaint 313K Oct 18 17:28 runghc -rwxr-xr-x 1 neversaint neversaint 313K Oct 18 17:28 runhaskell [download] --- neversaint and everlastingly indebted.......

*make: /home/neversaint/.ghc/bin/hsc2hs-6.4.1: Command not found make: * src/Data/Yaml/Syck.hs Error 127*** I got this same error when trying to build it manually. I fiddled around and finally gave up. I was going to ask when the version of Perl6 will be ready that builds as easily and well as Perl5, based just on 'c'. I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth. Cogito ergo sum a bum	[reply]

And I was going to answer that, based on my experience with Perl and C, it takes at least ten years of blood, sweat, and tearing your hair out to get to that point. So you can start complaining about the rough spots in, oh, make it another four years or so. `:-)`	[reply]
