mkdir: cannot make directory `/PROGS/GHC5023/BIN/ghc/imports/HOpenGL': No such file or directory make[1]: *** [install] Error 1 make: *** [install] Error 1 [...]
I'm not an expert in the arcane ways cygwin and GHC on M$-platforms mangle innocent pathnames, but you could try
make GHC_LIB_DIR=<wherever your GHC really is> install
Well, using: make GHC_LIB_DIR=~/ install worked and the package was installed successfully. But now I have another problem: I tried to use "make all" to build the examples and then I got: /PROGS/GHC502/BIN/ghc -i../../lib -I../../lib -syslib util -fglasgow-exts "-#i nclude <GL/glut.h>" -O -c BspTree.hs -o BspTree.o /PROGS/GHC502/BIN/ghc: not found make[2]: *** [BspTree.o] Error 127 make[1]: *** [all] Error 1 make: *** [all] Error 1 I'm sure this problem did not exist before installing the package: the compilation of the examples were ok, except for a warning saying that "[example] is in package Main but it claims it is in package HOpenGL" or something like that. Unfortunately, removing the package does not help and the "/PROGS/GHC502/BIN/ghc: not found" still happens. [Notice that I restarted the installing process now using ghc5.02 (which is in /progs/ghc502) rather than ghc5.02.3, just to check if the problem was in GHC. However, I had exactly the same problems, independent of the compiler version.] Any ideas...? -- Andre
