Issues With Install Script in Haskell Platform 2009.2.0.2

Hi all, I am running Ubuntu Karmic Kameleon and GHC 6.10.4 and am having issues with the Haskell Platform 2009.2.0.2 source installer. The 'configure' and 'make' step work fine, but 'make install' errors with: scripts/install.sh Installing mtl-1.1.0.2... Error: The mtl-1.1.0.2/Setup script does not exist or cannot be run And indeed mtl-1.1.0.2/Setup does not exist. It appears that the 'make' step builds some packages and not others. The 'Setup' executable is only in the following package directories: ./network-2.2.1.4/Setup ./editline-0.2.1.0/Setup ./alex-2.3.1/Setup ./happy-1.18.4/Setup ./haskell-platform-2009.2.0.2/Setup ./fgl-5.4.2.2/Setup ./cgi-3001.1.7.1/Setup ./cabal-install-0.6.2/Setup ./HTTP-4000.0.6/Setup ./GLUT-2.1.1.2/Setup ./OpenGL-2.2.1.1/Setup ./zlib-0.5.0.0/Setup ./time-1.1.2.4/Setup Here is the current contents of my global and local packages: Global Packages: Cabal-1.6.0.3, HUnit-1.2.0.3, QuickCheck-1.2.0.0, array-0.2.0.0, base-3.0.3.1, base-4.1.0.0, bytestring-0.9.1.4, containers-0.2.0.1, directory-1.0.0.3, (dph-base-0.3), (dph-par-0.3), (dph-prim-interface-0.3), (dph-prim-par-0.3), (dph-prim-seq-0.3), (dph-seq-0.3), extensible-exceptions-0.1.1.0, filepath-1.1.0.2, (ghc-6.10.4), ghc-prim-0.1.0.0, haddock-2.4.2, haskell-src-1.0.1.3, haskell98-1.0.1.0, hpc-0.5.0.3, html-1.0.1.2, integer-0.1.0.1, mtl-1.1.0.2, network-2.2.1.2, old-locale-1.0.0.1, old-time-1.0.0.2, packedstring-0.1.0.1, parallel-1.1.0.1, parsec-2.1.0.1, pretty-1.0.1.0, process-1.0.1.1, random-1.0.0.1, regex-base-0.72.0.2, regex-compat-0.71.0.1, regex-posix-0.72.0.3, rts-1.0, stm-2.1.1.2, syb-0.1.0.1, template-haskell-2.3.0.1, time-1.1.4, unix-2.3.2.0, xhtml-3000.2.0.1 Local Packages: haskelldb-0.13, haskelldb-hsql-0.10, haskelldb-hsql-sqlite3-0.10, hsql-1.8.1, hsql-sqlite3-1.8.1

It looks as though the Haskell platform install script doesn't like it
if you are overwriting an existing installation.
The problem is line 18 of scripts/install.sh:
[ -x Setup ] || die "The ${PKG}/Setup script does not exist or cannot be run"
So if the 'Setup' executable doesn't exist in a certain directory the
whole process errors. For my purposes I changed it to:
[ -x Setup ] || return 0
and things proceeded smoothly.
Thanks!
