What's the easiest reference for how to build GHC head and get it up and running with cabal/haskell-platform? I simply installed 6.12 + haskell-platform then built ghc-6.13.xx and rebuilt only the packages I needed with "cabal install --reinstall". Perhaps this is not the recommended way. Indeed, something must be wrong because I can't build certain packages. (I have problems with "base" dependencies.) For example: $ cabal install QuickCheck Resolving dependencies... cabal: cannot configure QuickCheck-1.2.0.0. It requires base ==3.* For the dependency on base ==3.* there are these packages: base-3.0.3.1 and base-3.0.3.2. However none of them are available. base-3.0.3.1 was excluded because of the top level dependency base -any base-3.0.3.2 was excluded because of the top level dependency base -any Thanks! -Ryan
