So if I put cpphs into build-tools and I don't have it installed, the build will fail? Is this a desired behavior, or a bug?

The same thing comes up with happy, alex, and gtk2hsc2hs. -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allbery.b@gmail.com ballbery@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
