P.S.: Locale is UTF-8, I guess hGetContents gets the default encoding from the locale now? On Monday 23 November 2009 07:53:55 Daniel Schüssler wrote:
Hi,
I don't think this is the same problem as the one mentioned by Alex (installing `network' works for me):
{---------------------------------------------- $ cabal install X11
Resolving dependencies... Configuring X11-1.4.6.1... configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --with-compiler checking for gcc... gcc checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out

The exception was: ExitFailure 1 ----------------------------------------------}
Converting the offending file (Extras.hsc) to UTF-8 manually solves it:
{----------------------------------------------
$ file Extras.hsc Extras.hsc: ISO-8859 English text
$
temp $ mv temp Extras.hsc $ cd ../../.. $ cabal install [OK] ----------------------------------------------}
Greetings, Daniel

Hi all,
We are pleased to announce the second release candidate for GHC 6.12.1:
http://www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/6.12.1-rc2/
As well as the source tarball: ghc-6.12.0.20091121-src.tar.bz2 there are installers for Windows (i386) and OS X (i386), and binary distributions for x86_64/Linux and i386/Linux. For the Linux binary distributions, the "linux-n" tarballs are recommended over the "linux" tarballs.
Please test as much as possible; bugs are much cheaper if we find them before the release!
Thanks Ian, on behalf of the GHC team
