Re: [Haskell-cafe] Dynamic loading of module

Thanks again for your patience and efforts. I am pretty sure I did not remove anything from the global package scope, at least intentionally. But of course I may have done things whcih you did not recommend. Here is the command-line history: ghc-pgk unregister --user template-haskell ghc-pkg unregister --user template-haskell ghc-pkg unregister --force --user template-haskell ghc-pkg unregister --force --user quickcheck ghc-pkg unregister --force --user QuickCheck ghc-pkg unregister --force --user template-haskell cd C:\Documents and Settings\abailly\Application Data\ghc\i386-mingw32-7.0.3\ dir c: dir cd package.conf.d dir cd .. rm -fr package.conf.d d: ghc-pkg check ghc-pkg update ghc-pkg recache Regards, Arnaud On Mon, Aug 29, 2011 at 4:03 AM, Albert Y.

Hello Albert, Thanks for taking the time to help me fix this package stuff. So I wiped out my package.conf.d/ and tried to reinstall my stuff. Installing template-haskell 2.5.0.0 is ok (2.6 is not, fails to compile on ghc 7.0.3) but then:

D:\projets\>ghc --make -package ghc main <command line>: cannot satisfy -package ghc (use -v for more information)

I suspect I really *do* have to reinstall haskell-platform. Here is the output of ghc-pkg list -v:

You have too many instances of template-haskell. The important parts are:

package ghc-7.0.3-__**fc75cf67c86ba2c0d64b07024a18d3**__b4 is unusable

due to missing or recursive dependencies: template-haskell-2.5.0.0-__**7d9b1443ac5ab69e5ed705a487990d**__eb

package template-haskell-2.5.0.0-__**7d9b1443ac5ab69e5ed705a487990d**__eb is shadowed by package template-haskell-2.5.0.0-__**87f4f416a22a910e480ac9f269479a**__5f

and in "ghc-pkg list -v":

I don't know how you got to this unsafe state. But my article explains what's wrong with it. (Though my example has different version numbers on top of different ABI hashes).

The user instance of template-haskell (__**87f4f416a22a910e480ac9f269479a**__5f) is getting into the way. Lose

it by doing "ghc-pkg unregister --user template-haskell" on it. Oh, it will complain about breaking other packages; well, lose them too.

(Or go one step further and lose all of C:\Documents and Settings\abailly\Application Data\ghc\i386-mingw32-7.0.3\__**package.conf.d which means losing all user packages.)

(Reinstalling haskell platform changes nothing, as long as some user package gets into the way.)

I do not understand why you had template-haskell in global and now you don't, i.e., last time you still had

D:/Program Files/Haskell Platform/2011.2.0.1\lib\**package.conf.d: [...] template-haskell-2.5.0.0 (template-haskell-2.5.0.0-** 7d9b1443ac5ab69e5ed705a487990d**eb)

and now you don't have it.

I clearly did not suggest getting rid of it.

I only suggested getting rid of the user instance "ghc-pkg unregister --user template-haskell" and/or getting rid of "C:\Documents and Settings\abailly\Application Data\ghc\i386-mingw32-7.0.3\**package.conf.d" which are all just user instances, wouldn't lose global instances.

I do not understand why you are so keen on replacing what comes with GHC and/or Haskell Platform. I have said several times that such replacements cause troubles.

I give up. I am replying because I want to record that my suggestion would not lead to an important part of the current state.
