Hi Arthur, The correct steps to take are: 1) install GHC from the windows installer - trivial 2) install Gtk2hs from the windows installer Unfortunately Gtk2hs hasn't been updated to work with GHC 6.8.1, so step 2 will fail. The person who is going to do this is Duncan. He usually breaks down and does this once people start complaining on the mailing list.
- Installed MinGW 5.1.3
Generally, if you have to install MinGW you can pretty much guarantee that something somewhere is going to go wrong - not enough people test this route to make it reliable. Windows and Haskell is not a well travelled route, but if you stray of the cuddly installer packages, it gets even worse. Thanks Neil
