Solved (Was: [Haskell-cafe] cannot build greencard)

Yes, it works: $ greencard -V greencard, version 3.00 (Daniel: You were right; I made the mistake of following the instructions in the README :). Now I've finally switched to Cabal, and that did the trick. Bulat: Yes, I am aware of all the other projects, but greencard seems to be a front-end to FFI, and it looks alive enough to me right now, right?) (Btw the "report-bugs-to" e-mail doesn't work.) (Btw2: diff -r cabal-install-0.6.2/bootstrap.sh cabal-install-0.6.2-/bootstrap.sh 166c166 < dep_pkg "parsec" "2\." ---

dep_pkg "parsec" "3\."

shouldn't be a problem, right?) Thanks everybody, Cheers, Matthias On Wed, Sep 02, 2009 at 11:41:34PM +0200, Daniel Fischer wrote:

Yet strangely, the last upload was Sun Apr 19 21:42:04 UTC 2009 and hackage claims it builds without failure with ghc-6.10.

And in fact it builds just fine for me, so maybe it is worth finding out why it doesn't build for you. Are you using ghc-6.10.4 and the latest version of cabal?

He used make, not cabal. My guess is that the makefiles haven't been updated because we now have Cabal and cabal. Formerly, Text.PrettyPrint.HughesPJ was in base, now it's in pretty, since --make is none of the HC_OPTIONS in the makefiles, ghc can't find HughesPJ, thus the linker errors.
