Hello, I downloaded nhc98-1.10-1.i386.rpm and tried to install it under Red Hat Linux 7.2. The first problem was that GnoRPM signaled a dependency problem - it said that nhc98-1.10-1.i386.rpm needs hmake. I ignored this and installed the package anyway. I started nhc98 which said that it couldn't find /usr/bin/harch and /usr/lib/nhc98//config. Wolfgang

I don't know very much about the RPM package of nhc98. However I do know that `hmake' was split off into a separate RPM - if the nhc98 package does not include the `harch' script, then it must be in the `hmake' package, so yes, you do need to install that as well. ftp://ftp.cs.york.ac.uk/pub/haskell/hmake/hmake-2.03-1.i386.rpm Regards, Malcolm

Hello. If the RPMS are the one I have produced, you cannot ignore the dependency on hmake. hmake is distributed together with nhc98, if you download the source code and compile it yourself. There are some files that are common between hmake and nhc98. But hmake can be used with other Haskell compilers besides nhc98. Also hmake source code can be downloaded separated from nh98, of course. So when packaging nhc98 and hmake I put the common files in hmake, and it does not depend on nhc98. But nh98 depends on hmake. So, install both of them. They are working for me in my RedHat Linux 7.2 box.
