It starts good but ends with 

-----------
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ../html-docs/rts/* 
  /home/mechvel/ghc/6.6/inst/share/ghc-6.6/html/libraries/rts

/usr/bin/install: cannot stat `../html-docs/rts/*': No such file or directory
/usr/bin/install: cannot stat `rts.haddock': No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [install-docs] Error 1
-----------

I wonder where should reside `../html-docs/rts/*',
what might this mean, and what is haddock.
