Can't install yesod-platform due to vector package

Hi all, I'm trying to install Yesod as suggested by this page. http://www.yesodweb.com/page/quickstart with the following command cabal update cabal install yesod-platform yesod-bin --max-backjumps=-1 --reorder-goals But I constantly get the following error. ... 136 warnings and 6 errors generated. Failed to install vector-0.10.9.1 cabal: Error: some packages failed to install: aeson-0.6.2.1 depends on vector-0.10.9.1 which failed to install. ... The error appears to be from the fact that cabal cannot install vector package. Any suggestion to fix the problem. I'm on Maverick, Xcode5, Haskell Platform 2013.2.0.0 64bit Thanks, Ed

We would have to see the actual errors, as opposed to just how many errors occurred which is all that you have shown us. But, since you say you are on Mavericks with Xcode 5, have you applied the mandatory changes for Xcode 5 support? http://is.gd/H4sEub -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allbery.b@gmail.com ballbery@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net

Can you include the full output from trying to install vector? cabal install vector-0.10.9.1 On Thu, Jan 16, 2014 at 6:43 PM, Sukit Tretriluxana < tretriluxana.s@gmail.com> wrote:

Thanks both Brandon and Michael for your help. My bad. I wasn't aware of
the small step to take after install Haskell Platform that Brandon pointed
out. After done that, everything works just fine.
