I'm trying to install hat on with ghc 6.2.1 under linux.

Looking for ghc... found 6.2.1 WARNING: hat-2.02 needs a version of ghc >= 5.04.

Hmmm, strange. He founds ghc 6.2.1 and hat needs 5.04, but why is he complaining??

The hat-2.02 package is quite old now and does not build cleanly with ghc >= 6.0. All the problems are already fixed in CVS, and we do hope to release an updated package in the mid-term future, but in the meantime, we recommend that ghc-6.x users use our anonymous CVS repository to get a working version of Hat.
