Hi,
What is the status of hs-plugins? I recently tried to install the version plugins-1.2 on hackage, using a Gnu/Linux box with Fedora 9 and ghc-6.8.2, but didn't get past the configure stage (see config.log below).
The installation script is invoking gcc with a -V command line argument but according to gcc documentation -V requires an argument.
Has anyone managed to get hs-plugins to work? If so, what platform, which version of ghc and gcc, and where did you find the hs-plugins source?
It's working fine for me (after applying the patch I submitted), on Debian Lenny (which currently comes with ghc 6.8.2, gcc 4.2.4) and the source from Hackage. Source from the darcs repository also works fine (after applying the same patch). I *am* getting an application crash sometimes when I close my application, but I have not yet been able to track that down so I'm not 100% sure it's due to hs-plugins. Edsko
