Hi Jacques
Does it install properly by the runhaskell Setup.hs configure / build / install? I re-installed it this way a couple of weeks ago and it never mentioned mktexlsr.
No, it doesn't. I first run into issues with exceptions-related issues (as you did), which I solved via runghc Setup configure --constraint="base<4" But the install still failed on mktexlsr. So I tried runghc Setup configure --constraint="base<4" --with-mktexlsr="C:\\cygwin\\bin\\mktexlsr" runghc Setup build runghc Setup install but now I get a new error related to mktexlsr, namely $ runghc Setup install Installing executable(s) in C:\Program Files (x86)\Haskell\bin Setup: \cygwin\bin\mktexlsr: runGenProcess: invalid argument (Exec format error) mktexlsr is a /bin/sh script, so it's quite natural that an Exec on that would fail. So I'm still stuck. Thanks for the dos2unix pointer, that would have taken quite a while to figure out. Jacques
