I have fixed the issue on my end. The compiler was apparently confused
by the following import lines :
import qualified Graphics.UI.Gtk as G
import qualified Graphics.UI.Gtk.Gdk.Events as G
I changed the first to :
import qualified Graphics.UI.Gtk as Gtk
and make subsequent changes to the file System/Vacuum/Cairo.hs
A patch file is included.

Hi all, When I try to cabal install vacuum-cairo, I get the following error message : Resolving dependencies... Configuring vacuum-cairo-0.4.1... Preprocessing library vacuum-cairo-0.4.1...

Can anyone shed some light? -deech
