Is there a preferred way of getting this going? I tried the GHC instructions for Debian, but this seems to depend on 6.6 already being in the repository, which it's not, in Ubuntu (why?).

I like Debian/Ubuntu's install system, and I assume that 6.6 will eventually make it into Ubuntu. I want to be sure whatever I do now doesn't later confuse the system.

I assume you're sending this to me as I'm listed as maintainer on the ubuntu packages, but I am not involved with ubuntu. You'd have to speak with the Ubuntu people for info about their plans for GHC 6.6 etc. Thanks Ian
