installing haskell platform on 64-bit ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid)
Has anyone had problems getting Haskell Platform installed on Ubuntu 10.04? I've got GHC 6.12.1 installed via apt-get, and I've downloaded/untarred haskell-platform-2010.1.0.0.tar.gz. But when I run ./configure, it fails fairly quickly, with an error 'cause it can't build the "hello world" test program, complaining: <command line>: unknown package: haskell98 Anyone else seen this? Am I missing something obvious? --Andy

What does 'ghc-pkg list|grep haskell' show? /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org Jabber: magnus＠therning．org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe

So, after seeing the above, I figured out that I had a ~/.ghc directory, apparently left from a previous attempt at installing haskell-platform. After deleting it, I was able to get past the ./configure step. I then just had to figure out I needed to install libghc6-monadcatchio-mtl-{dev,prof} and everything went swimmingly. Thanks for the clue! --Andy
