Dear all,
I tried to install the binary snapshot on Debian (etch) x86_64 and got:
/usr/local/lib/ghc-6.10.0.20081005/ghc: error while loading shared libraries: libedit.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I do have libedit (I think):
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 2007-11-30 16:01 /usr/lib/libedit.so.2 -> libedit.so.2.9 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 140640 2006-03-19 15:26 /usr/lib/libedit.so.2.9
This is the right package?
dpkg -l "libedit*" ... ii libedit2 2.9.cvs.20050518 BSD editline and history libraries
For some reason it seems that Fedora and Debian are using different versions of the libedit shared library. Our binary installers are build on Fedora. For the release we'll probably have two binary distributions, one for Fedora and one for Debian(-based) systems. You might be able to get away with symlinking libedit.so.0 to libedit.so.2 in the meantime. Cheers, Simon
