Hi,
I'm trying to build MissingH (0.18.6) on Windows, but it looks like
(probably because of changes in Cabal) the Setup.hs is broken. Im using GHC
6.8.1. Following message:
$ runhaskell Setup.hs configure
Setup.hs:19:35:
    Couldn't match expected type `(Either
                                     GenericPackageDescription
PackageDescription,
                                   HookedBuildInfo)'
           against inferred type `PackageDescription'
    In the first argument of `(confHook defaultUserHooks)', namely
        `mydescrip'
    In the expression:
        let
          mydescrip = case os of
                        "mingw32" -> ...
                        _ -> ...
        in (confHook defaultUserHooks) mydescrip flags
    In the definition of `customConfHook':
        customConfHook descrip flags
                         = let mydescrip = ...
                           in (confHook defaultUserHooks) mydescrip flags
I'm new to Cabal and I couldn't see a fast way to fix it.
Thanks,
Nicu
