Debian packages for both Hugs and GHC are now available! Hugs March 2005: http://packages.debian.org/unstable/interpreters/hugs GHC 6.4 (Thanks to Ian Lynagh): http://haskell-unsafe.alioth.debian.org/haskell-unsafe.html If you're already using Debian unstable and have Haskell Unsafe in your sources.list file, then all you need to do is:

apt-get update ; apt-get install ghc6 hugs

peace! isaac p.s. Today's three compiler releases represent the 0.6 release of Cabal, which is the first major release. I'll probably release a stand-alone version of Cabal 0.6 Real Soon Now.
