Problems with binary linux distribution

Problems with documentation when installing from binary
linux distribution of GHC 6.2.2, for glibc 2.2:
ghc-6.2.2-i386-linux-glibc2.2.tar.bz2

Missing directories: 

ghc-6.2.2/share/ps/
ghc-6.2.2/share/html/users_guide/
ghc-6.2.2/share/html/hslibs/

./configure worked fine. Make install worked for some
time but bailed out when attempting to copy .ps files
from ghc-6.2.2/share/ps/.

The installed GHC seems to work, though (at least some
simple tests with ghci). But I suppose some
documentation is not in place.

I suggest you recreate the tar file as to include the
full distribution.
