Hoping you can re-build the hat-lib from sources.
I did indeed eventually succeed in building it from the CVS sources. And the patch that you made solved the ambiguity problem. However, unfortunately I then ran into another problem. The symptom is $ make hat HATFLAGS=-I. hmake -hat -i. -i/usr/include/hat -i/home/users/fjh007/install/hat-cvs/include/hat -i./ghc -i./unix -package concurrent -package net -package posix -package hat -O -Wall -package-name galois -Iunix/include -Iinclude -c Codec/Base64.hs -o Hat/Codec/Base64.o hat-trans -I. Codec/Base64.hs Fail: /usr/local/include/hat/Data/Word.hx: openFile: does not exist (No such file or directory) /usr/bin/haskell-compiler -package concurrent -package net -package posix -package hat -O -Wall -package-name galois -c -o -Iunix/include -Iinclude -i. -i/usr/include/hat -i/home/users/fjh007/install/hat-cvs/include/hat -i./ghc -i./unix -iunix/include -iinclude -c -package hat -o Hat/Codec/Base64.o Hat/Codec/Base64.hs ghc-6.2: file `Hat/Codec/Base64.hs' does not exist make: *** [Hat/Codec/Base64.o] Error 1 I'm not quite sure why it goes on and invokes /usr/bin/haskell-compiler after the openFile failure. But that's a side issue. The main problem here seems to be that Hat doesn't support the "Data.Word" module. Is there any simple work-around? I'm not particularly interested in tracing that module. -- Fergus J.
