what's the best way to install GHC 6.6.1 on a Debian Etch system? Basically: are there installable packages available somewhere, or should I recompile the Sid packages, or create a stub package from a binary .tar.gz bundle, or some other option I didn't think of?
Yes.
Install the binary .tar.gz bundle *without creating a stub package*
It installs in /usr/local, so dpkg must not know about it.
Hmm, you have got a point, but then I can't uninstall/upgrade later easily, I'm afraid. -- Thanks, Feri.
