The file bindings-common.tar.gz looks a bit odd: when I unpack it with 7Zip, I get the path: bindings-common-1.1.tar.gz\\home\mauricio\bindings-common-1.1.tar.gz\bindings-common-1.1\ (first part deleted) Met vriendelijke groet, Henk-Jan van Tuyl -- http://functor.bamikanarie.com http://Van.Tuyl.eu/ -- On Thu, 01 Oct 2009 16:12:21 +0200, Roel van Dijk <vandijk.roel@gmail.com> wrote:
Yes, that happens. I don't now the cause but the work-around is easy. Simply download the package manually from hackage, unpack and install using cabal.
At least the following packages suffer from this problem: bindings-common bindings-libusb bindings-posix
Perhaps Maurício can shed some light on this.

I tried to install on my Mac but bindings-common choked on:
cabal install bindings-common Resolving dependencies... cabal: Error: some packages failed to install: bindings-common-1.1 failed while unpacking the package. The exception was: /var/folders/mR/mRFqQvztFo0URT0d6GN9wE+++TI/-Tmp-/bindings-common-1.174967/bindings-common-1.1/src/Bindings: createDirectory: does not exist (No such file or directory)
Not sure if this is interesting to you, Bas, but I thought I'd share. :-)
Groetjes,
Martijn.
