Which version of GHC are you using?

However, I _think_ that the problem is that the version of ghc-paths that you are using is wanting features that no longer exist in Cabal-1.8.  Either that or the new ghc-pkg setup in ghc-6.12 (assuming you're using that) is different and ghc-paths is trying to do something with it in the Makefile.  ghc-paths-0.1.0.6 seems to work with GHC-6.12; whether this is because it needs 6.12 or because 6.12 ships with (and needs) Cabal 1.8 is something we'll have to investigate and check.

It's a bit hard to diagnose this problem without at least knowing this Diego...

[Comment 4 Sergei Trofimovich (RETIRED) 2010-07-04 17:50:37 UTC]

It's likely Cabal's API change problem. I think we got rid of ghc-paths in most of packages and should just remove it from the tree.

[Comment 5 Sergei Trofimovich (RETIRED) 2010-07-17 12:51:40 UTC]

Thought about it little more and I think it's simpler to reintroduce ghc-patch deps in haddock again instead of maintaining current hacks.

Pushed fix to the tree.

Thank you, Diego!
