Dear all, Hopefully, you will excuse me for my lack of experience with Cabal. I have seen quite a few e-mails on this list that seem related to this issue, but my specific error, I did not find. Thus: Since installing 6.10.1, I can't perform Setup.(l)hs functions. The error message I get is: Setup.hs: alex is required but it could not be found. The problem is that I get this error also when I try to "runghc Setup.lhs build" alex (is the fact that "runghc Setup.lhs configure" does *not* produce this error significant?). I'm running an OpenSuSE 10.3 installation on which I can only install rpms from standard repositories. In these repositories, there is no binary distribution of alex. How do I install alex from source without requiring alex? Regards, Philip
