Hello, I've installed Cabal and cabal-install 1.16 (which required network) on a new GHC 7.6.1 install and everything went well, except now when building a package requiring network I get:
Loading package network-2.4.0.1 ... ghc.exe: Unknown PEi386 section name `.idata $4' (while processing: c:/ghc/ghc-7.6.1/mingw/lib\libws2_32.a) ghc.exe: panic! (the 'impossible' happened) (GHC version 7.6.1 for i386-unknown-mingw32): loadArchive "c:/ghc/ghc-7.6.1/mingw/lib\\libws2_32.a": failed
I have done something wrong while building network on my Windows XP machine? What can I check?
I'm not quite sure what's going on. We did test cabal-install (and thus network) on a Windows machine before the release.
