CVS and ghc-5.00

[Sebastien Carlier]

Hello,

There have been no reactions regarding my post about the dependency
"problem" - I posted it to the cvs-ghc mailing list, now I should
probably have used the bug report system on sourceforge.
Does it just happen to me ?
To give a concrete example, my fptools/ghc/compiler/.depend contains:

# DO NOT DELETE: Beginning of Haskell dependencies
utils/Bag.o utils/Bag./usr/local/ghc-5.00/lib/imports/std_o utils/Bag./usr/local/ghc-5.00/lib/imports/lang_o utils/Bag./usr/local/ghc-5.00/lib/imports/concurrent_o utils/Bag./usr/local/ghc-5.00/lib/imports/posix_o utils/Bag./usr/local/ghc-5.00/lib/imports/text_o utils/Bag./usr/local/ghc-5.00/lib/imports/util_o : utils/Bag.lhs

utils/Bag./usr/local/ghc-5.00/lib/imports/util_o : utils/Outputable./usr/local/ghc-5.00/lib/imports/util_hi
...

The file is abnormally huge (~2.3Mb).

If it is really a bug, I really think it should be fixed before 5.00
is released.  I'm not familiar enough with the driver part of GHC to
find out and fix the problem myself, sorry.
