Be happy: we're about 15 years ahead of the lisp guys. 'cabal install xmonad' works, for example.
- not on windows (and since it is popular, it will seduce more good haskellers not to bother with windows compatibility.. :-( - from xmonad.cabal (version 0.3, from hackage): build-depends: base>=2.0, X11>=1.2.1, X11-extras>=0.3, mtl>=1.0, unix>=1.0 so, you guarantee that it will work with base-3.0, X11-2.0, X11-extras-1.0, mtl-2.0, unix-2.0. even though all of those will -if i now understand the versioning intentions correctly- lack features of the current versions? claus
