I don't know what to do here. Can anybody help me please?
I'm using the brand new GHC 6.10.1 on Windows Vista.
Best regards,
Do you have the curl C library installed?
The first problem is that curl uses a configure script and that needs 'sh' which needs mingw+msys or cygwin. That's what the error message is obliquely reporting. After that the next problem will be having the curl C lib installed.
Either way, that error message from Cabal isn't very good. Duncan?

Speaking of Cabal contributors, we're a little short of them at the moment.
