Erm... wuh? I just tried to install Gtk2hs and got an error message to the effect that it cannot be installed since I have GHC 6.6.1, which isn't 6.6 or 6.4. Anybody know how to fix this? Am I being dumb? Thanks. Andrew.

Hi Andrew,

Are you running Windows or Linux? If Linux, where did you get your package from? After a new GHC release comes out, new Gtk2Hs packages are required. I usually find that pointing out that you can't use Gtk2Hs gives Duncan the motivation to put aside a little time to build the Windows installer. Thanks Neil

Windoze.

Ah. OK...

Yeah, there'll be a new release and a Windows installer for GHC 6.6.1 when I get back from holiday. Duncan
