That is strange, I&#39;m using Ubuntu myself, and I come from Windows so know absolutely nothing about Linux whatsoever, but GHC 6.10.2 binary installed without problems.<br><br>But anyway, in this case, if you&#39;re on Windows, installation of GHC works like a charm: download, install, play. But for most of the packages on Hackage, Windows is not a good platform :)<br>

If GHC is robust overall (which I&#39;m yet to find out), why is the<br>
installation so broken?<br>
