for each package you have to type (*) :

runhaskell Setup.hs configure runhaskell Setup.hs build sudo runhaskell Setup.hs install

(*) sometimes it'll be Setup.lhs, I'm annoyed that it's not always the same name, can't rely on shell history :(

Same here; my solution is to always compile it using 'ghc --make Setup' (note the missing extension) and then ./Setup afterwards. Cheers Ben
