About a month ago, I asked about how to install freeglut and get GHC to recognize it. I was side-tracked; I finally decided to try to get it working, and I'm just stuck. I have GHC 6.6.1 and freeglut 2.4.0. Freeglut successfully compiled "out of the box" in MS Visual Studio.Net 2003 on my Windows XP box. GHC won't recognize freeglut; I found out that I need to recompile the GLUT package to get things working. Today I downloaded the GLUT package from hackage.haskell.org and attempted to install it. The installation blows up. According to Cabal/How_to_install_a_Cabal_package, I need to download the package, unzip it, and then run the following three commands. 1. runghc Setup.hs configure 2. runghc Setup.hs build 3. runghc Setup.hs install The first command, "runghc Setup.hs configure", fails, reporting that it can't find "sh". Naturally, I'm on a Windows box, so I don't have the Unix shell on my system. So now I'm stuck... * Is there an easy way to work around the absence of "sh"? * Is there an easy way to get "sh" on my Windows box? * <joke> GHC was available pre-compiled for Windows. Is there an easy way to get someone else to compile the GLUT package for me? :-) </joke> * Is it feasible to walk past a cut and "upgrade" to Linux? Most Windows programs can be replaced by open-source equivalents, but my sticky issue is that there's no Linux version of iTunes. -- Ron PS, Here's the output of configure. Do I really need all this stuff just for the GLUT package?
