I cannot reproduce this problem. It works fine for me.
I made a dummy takusen.cabal: and your takusen.buildinfo I assume you did actually have the above line properly indented. With it as it is you get a parse error when reading in the buildinfo file.
Yes, cut'n'paste error.
So I'll need more precise details on how to reproduce the problem. Is there a darcs repo I should use? What commands should I use exactly?
I've pushed the current Setup and .cabal to our repo. You can say: darcs get http://darcs.haskell.org/takusen Then do this: ghc --make Setup setup configure -fodbc -fsqlite -fpostgres (note that you need to have these backends on your path; perhaps just -fodbc -fsqlite for you?) setup register --gen-pkg-config I've just done this. Takusen.buildinfo contains: extra-libraries: odbc32 pq sqlite3 extra-lib-dirs: "C:\\Program Files\\sqlite3\\" C:/PROGRA~1/POSTGR~1/8.1/lib includes: install-includes: include-dirs: "C:\\Program Files\\sqlite3\\" C:/PROGRA~1/POSTGR~1/8.1/include C:/PROGRA~1/POSTGR~1/8.1/include/server but Takusen-0.8.2.conf has: import-dirs: "C:\\Program Files\\Haskell\\Takusen-0.8.2\\ghc-6.8.1" library-dirs: "C:\\Program Files\\Haskell\\Takusen-0.8.2\\ghc-6.8.1" hs-libraries: HSTakusen-0.8.2 extra-libraries: odbc32 pq sqlite3 extra-ghci-libraries: include-dirs: includes: Alistair
