I had another go at getting it going.

leksah 0.6.1 requires gtk2hs >= 0.10
gtk2hs 0.10.1 requires gtksourceview >= 2.2
gtksourceview 2.2 requires gtk+ >= 2.12
gtk+ >=2.12 requires upgraded glib

So the answer is no, it is not installable on Centos without
upgrade to gtk and glib.

The fedora 12 install works and I have leksah and my wx app
working, but unfortunately I use NX to open a remote session
to the server and leksah does something to crash the connection,
so I can not use it anyway.

Adrian.

Hi Adrian,

Were you able to get the installation of Leksah done ? I haven't tried installing leksah from cabal in centos myself but it would be good to know whether it is possible to get leksah built without having to upgrade gtk and glib in Centos 5.4. In that case, we might be able to use some rpms from fedora haskell platform.

Hi Adrian

Is Centos close enough to RedHat to use Fedora packages?

The Haskell-Platform seemingly is available as a package:

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/users/packages/haskell-sig

Leksah has a fairly large set of dependencies so installing it might
take some work - particularly where it depends on packages outside the
Haskell Plaform (GTK, etc...) you might well want versions from
Hackage rather than ones prepackaged for Fedora. It might be worth
asking on the Fedora-Haskell-devel mailing list for better advice.

Best wishes

Stephen
