Thanks for the help, guys. Life is short. I have spent the better part of two days trying to get soegtk to install. No luck. Same shit as when I left haskell behind two years ago. I'm out. - DJ - On 15-02-28 11:40 PM, DJ wrote:
Trying to install the package soegtk.
I am running linux mint 17 with the latest (as of Feb. 28) haskell platform and cabal-install.
I did install gtk2hs-buildtools and put the .cabal/bin in my path.
Cannot install soegtk:
Failed to install glib-0.12.5.4 cabal: Error: some packages failed to install: cairo-0.12.5.3 failed during the configure step. The exception was: ExitFailure 1 gio-0.12.5.3 depends on glib-0.12.5.4 which failed to install. glib-0.12.5.4 failed during the configure step. The exception was: ExitFailure 1 gtk-0.12.5.7 depends on glib-0.12.5.4 which failed to install. pango-0.12.5.3 depends on glib-0.12.5.4 which failed to install. soegtk-0.12.1 depends on glib-0.12.5.4 which failed to install.
Confession: I abandoned Haskell two years ago because of frustration with cabal and hackage. I decided to get back to the language today, and to start with Haskell School of Expression. I immediately run into the problem that the first thing I try to install with cabal does not work.
Thanks for any help. Please tell me things are not just as bad now as they were when I left ;-)
