Why do you have Gtk+ in two folders? Did you somehow install it twice?
Also what's in the following environment variable:
PATH, INCLUDE, PKG_CONFIG
-deech

Good afternoon:
Step 1 ['cabal install gtk2hs-buildtools'] ran successfully.
This is what 'echo %lib%' gives: C:\Users\User>echo %lib% C:\Program Files\Gtk+\lib;C:\Program Files (x86)\Gtk+\lib
This is what pkg-config --modversion gtk+-2.0 gives: C:\Users\User>pkg-config --modversion gtk+-2.0 2.16.2
Thanks again

Hi Patrick,

This is what I did so far: 1. I followed your wiki 2. I opened Command window and entered the command: cabal install gtk 3. It returned the error messages: * Missing C libraries: z, cairo * Missing C libraries: gobject-2.0, glib-2.0, intl 4. I then ran the command: cabal install gtk --extra-include-dirs="c:/Program Files/Gtk+/include" --extra-lib-dirs="c:/Program Files/Gtk+/include" This returned the same error messages as indicated in step 3 above.
Step 1 should already include step 2, so I better ask if gtk2hs-buildtools installed successfully?
If the compiler misses some libraries, it will never help to add more include folders, because they only contain header files, not lib files. For missing include files, you get a different error message. For libraries, you have to set up the LIB environment variable properly. It must include the lib folder with Gtk+. Could you show us the result of
echo %LIB%
at the prompt? The ouput of
pkg-config --modversion gtk+-2.0
might indicate an error as well. By the way, the environment variables at the command prompt should the sum of those made globally and those made for the current user.
Good luck Tim
