Re: [Haskell-cafe] cabal install glfw

Sorry, I cannot install GHC 6.12 right now, so I won't be able to try it. Thanks anyway. 2010/1/19 Paul L

The problem you mentioned has long been fixed in the darcs version, but then there is also another problem: you need GHC 6.12 in order to compile GLFW for Snow Leopard. Here is a detail description of why prior versions of GHC fails to work: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/3522

I've just made a new release and bumped GLFW to 0.4.2, you may try it with GHC 6.12 on Snow Leopard and see if it now works.

Dear Cafe and Paul,

I am constantly having problems with cabal install in Snow Leopard. Some I solve, some I cannot unfortunately.

When I run

sudo cabal install glfw -v2

in Snow Leopard, I get the following.

glfw/lib/macosx/macosx_enable.c:1:0: error: bad value (apple) for -march= switch

glfw/lib/macosx/macosx_enable.c:1:0: error: bad value (apple) for -mtune= switch cabal: Error: some packages failed to install: GLFW-0.4.1 failed during the building phase. The exception was: exit: ExitFailure 1
