I have X11 1.2.2 installed and wanted to upgrade to 1.3 (to satisfy the dependencies of another package), but "Setup configure" tells me I don't have the headers installed. I do, and when I configure 1.2.2 they're detected. Is this due to the newer version of Cabal? I have ghc 6.6, Cabal 1.1.6.
I'd need to see the exact message, but on some systems, notably OSX, the X headers are a little hard to find. This documents the issue: http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Xmonad/Frequently_asked_questions#X11_fails_t... This was improved in the darcs branch of X11, at http://darcs.haskell.org/X11 if you're interested. -- Don
