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.

When you say "they are definitely installed", what do you mean? If you mean you have installed Ubuntu packages like libgtk-dev (or whatever it is called), that's good, but not enough. Cabal is looking for *Haskell* libraries which contain the bindings to those foreign libraries. You will have to install gtk2hs, which provides them: http://www.haskell.org/gtk2hs/ -Brent
