Try this tarball: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/stable/dist/ghc-6.4-x86_64-unknown-linux .tar.bz2 It should be enough to get you going. The RPM does need root access unfortunately, but that's something we could fix in the future. Cheers, Simon

Anyone know if this is still relevant? Is it a Pugs or GHC issue? Cheers, Simon

Installing wxhaskell.
by Andrae Muys 02 Apr '05

I am running a Fedora Core 3 x86 box and attempting to install wxhaskell-ghc622 without success. Specifically it is obvious that I need to find libwx_gtk2-2.4.so and libwx_gtk2_gl-2.4.so. Which package, from which repository, have people installed these base libraries? I have tried installing wxGTK from the DAG repository, but it appears to have installed the wxWidgets library for GTK1.2. I have looked at the wxWidgets and wxHaskell websites and this appears to be the recommended combination, however it looks like the repository version is compiled against wxGTK2, and I can't seem to find that anywhere. I have done a yum whatprovides libwx_gtk2-2.4.so.0, with no success. I really am at a loss as to where to go from here? I have attached the output of the attempt to install wxhaskell in case there is something else wrong I'm missing.
