I am trying to build hat using ghc6.4.1 with windows/cygwin. I also tried nhc, but with the same error.

Warning: package(s) base not available (according to ghc-pkg)

Interesting warning.

...

Can't find module lang in user directories . ../compiler98 Or in installed libraries/packages at

The fact that no attempted location is reported for the standard installed libraries is worrying. It suggests that ghc-pkg is being invoked incorrectly by hmake. Another thing that looks wrong is that of course there is no module 'lang' - it is a library package instead.

I have to admit seeing this error with ghc-6.5 on OS X... Simply removing the "-package lang" in the options worked for me - I assume the lang package is brought in by default now. Bob
