https://hackage.haskell.org/package/hoq build problems

Hello, I stumbled across hoq and it sounds very interesting to me. However, it has build problems now enumerated in the official build reports. I was thinking to investigate and possibly fix these build problems. However, when I run "cabal configure", I already ran into a problem: "unrecognized option `--extra-prog-path=/home/vasili/.cabal/bin'" I have been trying to track this down. Not sure how to fix this. Any help?? Regards, Vasily

This worked for me: git clone git@github.com:valis/hoq.git cd hoq cabal install $ cabal --version cabal-install version 1.22.4.0 using version 1.22.2.0 of the Cabal library $ ghc --version The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 7.8.4 Cheers, Andreas On 13.10.2015 10:41, Vasili I.

[...] "unrecognized option `--extra-prog-path=/home/vasili/.cabal/bin'" [...]
Upgrading to a newer GHC and/or cabal-install should fix this, I think. Which versions of GHC/cabal-install are you using? What is the output of 'cabal configure -v3'?

vasili@vasili-VirtualBox: cabal --version
cabal-install version 1.20.0.3
using version 1.20.0.2 of the Cabal library
vasili@vasili-VirtualBox: ghc --version
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 7.6.3
OK ... I am running Ubuntu #31-Ubuntu. I am using apt-* install
manager. I am relying on the install manager team to furnish versions
of software. I will have to directly haskell.org to upgrade, yes??

The learnhaskell guide has instructions to get up to date versions of ghc
and cabal.
