Hello,
darcs get --init ....?????? I want to pull down Data.FiniteMap. I have forgotten the path to Hackage .. I tried ....
sudo darcs get http://hackage.haskell.org/ Data.FiniteMap [sudo] password for vigalchin: Invalid repository: http://hackage.haskell.org
darcs failed: Failed to download URL http://hackage.haskell.org/_darcs/inventory : HTTP error (404?)
??
Obviously the code I am cabalizing needs to be "upgraded"(i.e. not using deprecated packages) but first I want it to build!
From the error message above you appear to be "darcs get"ting the root
If you want to install something from Hackage, use $ cabal install foo If you want to grab the source $ darcs get --partial path/to/repo (Omit the --partial flag if you want the full source tree, but if you're not intending to do serious work on the source it's probably not worth it.) directory of the hackage server, which isn't a valid repository.
