I'd like to install GHC and thought the easiest way would be to take an appropriate rpm-file.So I downloaded an rpm file, it was said to running with SUSE 9.2 without problems. But when starting rpm -i ghc.-6.4-1.i386.rpm I got the message:
error: Failed dependencies: libgmp.so.3 is needed by ghc-6.4-1
But it is installed on my systems. I downloaded it again and installed it again and copied it (3 files: - the symlink libgmp.so, the symlink libgmp.so.3 and the file the libgmp.so.3.3.3) into several lib directories. NO SUCCESS
What is wrong? Has anyone an idea?
Are you running an x86_64 OS, or just a plain i386 one? If you're running x86_64, then perhaps you only have the 64-bit version of libgmp installed? Cheers, Simon

I have a X86_64 architecture. So you may be right. In which lib directory ghc-6.4-1 is looking for libgmp? There I could install the 32 bit version. Thanks Dieter
