Hello, Some of your problems may be related to the C++ ABI transition currently underway in debian. http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2005/07/msg00001.html I think this affects ghc because ghc depends on libraries like libgmp and libncurses which also ship C++ bindings. You could try pulling ghc from here instead -- it worked for me a week or so ago: deb http://haskell-unsafe.alioth.debian.org/archive/i386 . unstable testing stable Not sure why ghc depends on hugs, but I remember reading something about the two being more integrated in the future... Maybe to support things like eval ? Jeremy Shaw. At Sat, 10 Sep 2005 16:17:39 -0700, Iavor Diatchki wrote:
Hello, I would like to install the following tools on a Debian Linux distribution (testing flavor): GHC 6.4, alex, happy, darcs (I use Hugs from CVS, so I don't want to install the Debian version) I would also like to be able to update/remove any one of these tools independently (I know enough about the tools to know that they do not need each other to work).
Can I achieve this by using debian packages? I can get darcs, happy, and alex to work, but the only GHC 6.4 package I could find (in unstable) conflicts with the others. It also seems to depend on Hugs for some reason. I was able to get a working GHC 6.4 by using "alien" on the Fedora RPMs, but this seems like a rather embarassing (for the Debian distro) solution. Am I doing something wrong here? -Iavor _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
