Re: [Haskell-cafe] Re: ANN: HSH 1.2.0

resolved issue at http://groups.google.de/group/fa.haskell/browse_thread/thread/ceabae2c3fdc8abc/5ab21d4ae2a9b1fc?lnk=st&q=hsh++tphyahoo&rnum=5&hl=en#5ab21d4ae2a9b1fc 2007/4/2, Thomas Hartman :

Well, I guess I spoke to soon. After building ghc6 from feisty as described above, I tried building missingh and have basically what I started with.

Is there something I can tweak to get the above straightened out using those nice deb packages, or do I have to do all the dependency chasing involved with building from source? Or is there another way?

If this is too debian oriented please yell at me and I will ask about this on a deb/ubuntu forum.

thanks...

Note, should have mentioned, after doing as my above post describes, I installed all the newly generated deb packages with

dpkg -i *.deb

As you have built ghc6.6 from sources I think that you also need to build all haskell libs from sources. So, do

I did this, and got the feeling this would probably work, but is a real sad world of dependency chasing with no (clear) end in sight.

So I investigated your second suggestion

Another way is to take ghc6 and all haskell libs from fiesty.

which to me seems much preferrable.

http://old.pupeno.com/blog/unstable-packages-on-ubuntu/

Was indispensible in helping me figure out how to do this.

To give some details on this (which is really more apt packaging know how than haskell but whatever), I did something like

1) change /etc/apt/sources.list to add

deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty main restricted universe multiverse

note, only add deb-src line here, not deb line, see article above for why.

sudo aptitude install fakeroot (needed utility) fakeroot apt-get source --build ghc6 -- complains, some dependencies are missing

sudo aptitude install ..... install packages with above command, not from source. it's my first time using the aptitude command, I wonder if this does the same thing as apt-get install, which is what I usually do. Whatever the case...

fakeroot apt-get source --build ghc6

works :)
