Hi,

I'm trying to get caballized package deployment working on Mac OS X.

However, trying to build a package using runhaskell results in:

crossroads-able> runhaskell Setup.hs configure Warning: No license-file field. Configuring harp-0.2... configure: searching for ghc in path. configure: found ghc at /opt/local/bin/ghc runhaskell: waitForProcess: interrupted (Interrupted system call)

This was trying to build the harp module in the haskell-src-exts package (a prerequisite for hs-plugins).

hs-plugins depends on haskell-src-exts, not harp.

-- Friendly, Lemmih

Hi Lemmih, Yes, but harp is part of the haskell-src-exts distribution. However, the failure is not related to what I am trying to build. It doesn't matter if I run the same command, runhaskell Setup.hs configure in the haskell-src-exts subdirectory. The failure is the same. The failure also occurs if I try to configure an simple homemade application using the cabal method on OS X. The same test application configures and builds correctly using cabal on FreeBSD 5.4 under ghc-6.4. Best WIshes, Greg
