A very basic question re using GHC 6.4.1 on ubuntu linux - how do I go about installing a library? I want to install HUnit and suspected that /usr/lib/haskell-packages/ghc6/lib would be the place to untar it (into the dir HUnit-1.0), but that doesn't work. I was reluctant to move the contents of HUnit-1.0 directly into ...ghc6/lib because it includes examples and docs as well as the module files. I notice that MissingH, which I've installed, is in that dir but inside it's top level there are files like HSMissingH-0.13.1.o, installed-pkg-config, libHSMissingH-0.13.1.a ... does that mean that MissingH is a Package (something which I don't understand to be honest) and HUnit isn't? How do I tell what the load path of GHC is and add something to it? Where should I unpack HUnit for it to be accessible?

these days, all the main libs are cabalized that means that they have the same installation scenario: ./Setup.hs config ./Setup.hs build ./Setup.hs install -- Best regards, Bulat mailto:Bulat.Ziganshin@gmail.com
