Hi, I'm having a problem installing svgcairo with Cabal, which I need for something else. I don't know what's going on, but something (maybe a C preprocessor, judging by Google search results) barfs with the complaint: ./Graphics/Rendering/Cairo/SVG.chs:209:28: error: missing binary operator before token "(" I can't find the file SVG.chs on my system to inspect this line, but perhaps I'm looking in the wrong place. Has anyone encountered this? Am I perhaps using the wrong version of Cairo or Gtk? Any suggestions welcome. thanks Roly ====== $ cabal install svgcairo Resolving dependencies...
