Installing wxhaskell.

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.

Good question - this should really be documented somewhere... The wxhaskell package is built against the wxGTK package from Fedora Extras. If you add say /etc/yum.repos.d/extras.repo containing: [extras] name=Fedora Extras - $releasever - $basearch baseurl=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/extras/$releasever/$basea... gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/extras/RPM-GPG-KEY-Fedora... and try to "sudo yum install wxhaskell-ghc622" again you should be all set. :) Cheers, Jens
