Re: Win32 GHC cannot link GLUT (fixed)

[...] H:/ghc/ghc-6.2/HSGLUT.o: unknown symbol `_glutMainLoop' ghc.exe: panic! (the `impossible' happened, GHC version 6.2): can't load package `GLUT'
Ooops, something went wrong during building and/or packaging the .msi file, the glut32 library is missing in the linking step. This results in your problem with ghci and the linking problem with ghc. But this can easily be fixed by manually editing the package.conf file (probably located at H:/ghc/ghc-6.2/package.conf at your site): Find the package description for GLUT (name = "GLUT",) look for the next line containing
extra_ld_opts = [],
and change it to
extra_ld_opts = ["-lglut32"]
Hope that helps, S.
Yes, that's it. Thank you. ___________________________________________________ Yahoo! Messenger - Nueva versión GRATIS Super Webcam, voz, caritas animadas, y más... http://messenger.yahoo.es
