Re: [Haskell-cafe] Re: ANN: HSH 1.2.0

As you have built ghc6.6 from sources I think that you also need to build all haskell libs from sources. So, do

I did this, and got the feeling this would probably work, but is a real sad world of dependency chasing with no (clear) end in sight. So I investigated your second suggestion

Another way is to take ghc6 and all haskell libs from fiesty.

which to me seems much preferrable. http://old.pupeno.com/blog/unstable-packages-on-ubuntu/ Was indispensible in helping me figure out how to do this. To give some details on this (which is really more apt packaging know how than haskell but whatever), I did something like 1) change /etc/apt/sources.list to add deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty main restricted universe multiverse note, only add deb-src line here, not deb line, see article above for why. sudo aptitude install fakeroot (needed utility) fakeroot apt-get source --build ghc6 -- complains, some dependencies are missing sudo aptitude install ..... install packages with above command, not from source. it's my first time using the aptitude command, I wonder if this does the same thing as apt-get install, which is what I usually do. Whatever the case... fakeroot apt-get source --build ghc6 works :) 2007/3/21, Max Vasin :

$ apt-get source libghc6-mtl-dev $ cd <haskell-mtl-or-whatever-dir-is-named> $ runhaskell Setup.lhs configure $ runhaskell Setup.lhs build $ sudo runhaskell Setup.lhs install
