Workaround 1 : use C libz instead of Haskell zlib ------------------------------------------------- So how can you work around these errors? If you are building darcs on any Unix-y operating system (e.g. Linux or MacOS X), you can cabal configure darcs to use the old C libz binding:
cabal configure -f external-zlib
My advice here is incorrect. We want the /opposite/ cabal configure -f -external-zlib Although note that a new version of darcs 2.1.2.3 will be soon on hackage with the new default (unfortunately this makes darcs a bit harder to build on Windows unless you're willing to use Workaround #2 of actually fixing your .gz files) -- Eric Kow http://www.nltg.brighton.ac.uk/home/Eric.Kow PGP Key ID: 08AC04F9
