Hi all, I am trying to install vacuum-cairo and leksah. For both these packages cabal complains that "gtk", "gtksourceview", "svgcairo" etc are not found. They are definetely installed on my Ubuntu Hardy Heron box. Where is Cabal looking?

thanks ... -deech

What's the exact error message? These are all subpackages of gtk2hs, so doesn't cabal find the haskell packages of these names or the C(++) libraries? I f the haskell packages are not found, that means you haven't installed gtk2hs for your most recent ghc.
