Re: [Haskell-beginners] can't install hackage package

Yes i put the source then extra include dirs and extra lib dirs and pcre.dll in the same folder and worked great. On 21 Jan 2013 21:37, "Hartmut" wrote:

Hi, I wanted to try this under Windows also, but there are even more problems, since "pcre-light" dependency is not available (perhaps in case of using MSys, MingW) Hartmut

Windows, cabal 1.16.0.2, I got

cabal install rex --dry-run

Resolving dependencies... In order, the following would be installed (use -v for more details): hslogger-1.2.1 MissingH-1.2.0.0 pcre-light-0.4 split-0.2.1.1 th-lift-0.5.5 th-orphans-0.6 haskell-src-meta-0.6.0.1 rex-0.3.1

cabal install

Resolving dependencies... Configuring pcre-light-0.4... cabal: Missing dependency on a foreign library: * *Missing C library: pcre* This problem can usually be solved by installing the system package that provides this library (you may need the "-dev" version). If the library is already installed but in a non-standard location then you can use the flags --extra-include-dirs= and --extra-lib-dirs= to specify where it is. cabal: Error: some packages failed to install: pcre-light-0.4 failed during the configure step. The exception was: ExitFailure 1 rex-0.3.1 depends on pcre-light-0.4 which failed to install.

Hello,

I've been using this hackage package "rex" without problems on two computers (linux, windows) but now I fail setting it up on a third computer which confuses me, and the error message is not really enlightening for me:

$ cabal update Downloading the latest package list from hackage.haskell.org $ cabal --version cabal-install version 1.16.0.2 using version 1.16.0.3 of the Cabal library $ cabal install rex Resolving dependencies... cabal: Could not resolve dependencies: trying: rex-0.3.1

Any idea?

Thank you!

Emmanuel
