Hello,
I was following the "Yesod in Five Minutes Instructions" and I had a couple of bumps in the road.
The first one was when trying to do step 6, I get the following terminal output: unrecognized option `--only-dependencies'
After ignoring that for the moment, I proceeded to trying to run the devel server and I get this terminal output: yesod: user error (At least the following dependencies are missing: persistent-postgresql ==0.5.*)
I'm guessing the second error may be related to the first, maybe persistent-postgresql was one of those dependencies that was supposed to be installed?
I did create the Postgres databases and user specified in the Yesod app config file.
I'm using this PPA on Ubuntu 11.04 64-bit, as the repo version of the Haskell Platform seems to be broken: https://launchpad.net/~brcha/+archive/ppa
Thanks for any insight.
Try just plain "cabal install", the "--only-dependencies" is available in newer versions of the "cabal" tool. I'm going to remove it from the docs. Michael
