Haskellnet could not find network-any dependency.

Hi, I am trying to install Haskellnet. But the configuration breaks on dependency of network-any in GHC 6.6. I thought network-any was part of Hierarchical libraries? If not where do I get it? Edaward.

The generic place for libraries nowadays is hackage: http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/pkg-list.html where you find http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/network-2.0 The 'Hierarchical Libraries' do not exist as such; all modern Haskell libraries use the hierarchical module name extension for their exported modules. There are, however, a certain number of libraries that are regularly shipped together with Haskell implementations. All of them, except those which work only together with a certain compiler/interpreter version (e.g. 'base'), are avaiable from hackage. BTW, it would be nice if hackage would list repository locations, too, if available. The one for 'network' library is not mentioned on hackage; I found one here: http://darcs.haskell.org/packages/network/ Cheers Ben
