Re: Getting Cabal 1.1.1 working on Windows 98

I think the right way is to use postConf hook in the Cabal's Setup.lhs. The hook should check whether the BUILD platform is Windows 98 and it can add shfolder to extra-libs field in the hooked build info. Currently I am not sure how to check whether the platform is Windows 98. After all the Setup.lhs should still run under Unix. I wonder how many people still use Windows 98 platform. In my opinion it is too unstable. Cheers, Krasimir On 8/8/05, Isaac Jones wrote:

I don't understand this problem. What is the right way to fix this in cabal?
