Dear all, I'm trying to install regex-pcre on my XP Pro machine. I have the latest version of GHC. Do any of you recognise and understand the following error message? install regex-pcre Resolving dependencies... Configuring regex-pcre-0.94.2... 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: regex-pcre-0.94.2 failed during the configure step. The exception was: ExitFailure 1 Apologies if the query is a little offtopic. Regards Matthew
