People, please, how can I download happy-1.14 source ? I need to install ghc-6.8.2 from source, and this needs Happy -- right? I would like to build Happy from source. Its page shows only 1.17. 1.14 was easy to build in a standard way: ./configue --path=... make make install And in 1.17, I am looking into its unzipped root directory, and do not see how to make and install. Generally, it is good to show an easy way to make and install somewhere in the root, in README ... Probably, Happy is a wise and remarkable project. But many people need only to `make' GHC, and do not intend to study right now many documents and philosophy about Happy and Cabal, etc. Thank you in advance for your help, ----------------- Serge Mechveliani mechvel@botik.ru

The standard procedure for installing cabal packages is pretty similar: runghc Setup configure --prefix=... runghc Setup build runghc Setup install For those brave souls helping us test cabal-install it's even simpler: cabal install happy Duncan

If you don't want to go the cabal way, I could send you happy-1.15-src.tar.gz, that builds with ./configure; make; make install, too.
