I've been wrestling the last few days with putting Haddock documentation
into my code. After a dead-simple library failed to generate anything
meaningful, I gave up, turfed my copy of Haddock and downloaded the
latest from the web site. (Haddock 0.8, it seems.)
runhaskell Setup.lhs configure
runhaskell Setup.lhs build
runhaskell Setup.lhs install
These three worked fine and I verified with "which haddock" that the
right executable is being run. Then I typed "runhaskell Setup.lhs
haddock" and got this:
michael@isolde:~/Development/haddock-0.8$ runhaskell Setup.lhs
install

This is exactly the same problem I had running Haddock on my own
project. What's the next step from here?
