This looks suspicious to me: the "~" metacharacter is only understood by shells, and only in certain circumstances (i.e. only at the beginning of a "word", not after a "="), and by the time you reach that phase it should have been expanded to your home directory already. Check Cabal didn't leave stuff in a directory named "~" under your current directory, and if it did then redo the configure saying "$HOME" instead of "~" (and make sure you didn't quote it so that it gets passed on unexpanded like the "~" did).
I don't think haddock "has" to depend on lamdbabot. But I saw "Skipping HaddockHoogle" during the build. Isn't the Hoogle thing related to Lambdabot? Or they are unrelated.
Only insofar has Lambdabot has an interface to Hoogle (which IIRC depends on Haddock knowing how to build Hoogle indexes, which is what that segment is about). Haddock doesn't build the Hoogle stuff by default, IIRC. -- brandon s. allbery [solaris,freebsd,perl,pugs,haskell] allbery@kf8nh.com system administrator [openafs,heimdal,too many hats] allbery@ece.cmu.edu electrical and computer engineering, carnegie mellon university KF8NH
