[Haskell-cafe] cabal under windows (was Re: Haskell-Cafe Digest, Vol 51, Issue 180)

Well I'd say none of the packages I've tried, build out of the box...

I'm not a windows developer, but.... Is it actually reasonable to expect any cabal packages that depend on external c libraries and headers to build out of the box on windows? How can cabal find out where those files are, without requiring a config file to be edited? Tim
