[Haskell-cafe] Re: Checking dependencies from C packages in cabal

Until you get the perfect answer you may want to have a look at the cabal definitions of

zlib digest OpenGLRaw GLUT readline GLFW wxcore terminfo berkeleydb BerkeleyDB hubris pcre-light HDBC-mysql HDBC-sqlite3 HDBC-odbc HDBC-postgresql

I do know them. But they just include needed .h and .c files with Haskell package, mark required libraries but do no version check, or delegate the task to configure scripts or external programs. HDBC-mysql Setup program gave me a start, thought. Thanks.

Also make sure to search the Cabal mailinglist and maybe even move this thread to the Cabal mailinglist.

Cabal page sugests Haskell libraries mailing list for questions. I should have used that. Thanks. Best, Maurício
