I get a strange error building Takusen (more precisely: the module Foreign/C/UTF8.hs) with ghc-6.8.3. It says aragon: .../ghc-6.8.3/Takusen-0.8.1 > ./Setup build -v Reading parameters from /srv/projects/ctl/franksen/haskell/ghc-6.8.3/Takusen-0.8.1/takusen.buildinfo Creating dist/build (and its parents) Creating dist/build/autogen (and its parents) Preprocessing library Takusen-0.8.1...

Any ideas? Cheers Ben

Thanks for the report; I've filed a bug here: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/2409 As a workaround, removing the (redundant) uses of () `seq` in Foreign/C/UTF8.hs makes the build go through. Thanks Ian
Just a follow-up: I just did a darcs pull on the Takusen repo (which already contains Ian's work-around) and for the first time the cabal install process runs through w/o any problems on our debian linux machine at work (where we have only the Oracle client installed). I can even build and install the docs. Three cheers to Alistair and many thanks for the excellent work on Takusen. Ben

Well, I've been pushing these fixes as quickly as I can to get the repo into a nice state for a 0.8.2 release, which we plan to do ASAP. It's nice to get someone to test on non-Windows machines. Thanks. Alistair
