Get the new 0.9.1 release of xmonad which works with the 1.5.0.0 release
of X11.
Otherwise, downgrade X11.

Hi all,
I managed to install ghc 6.10.4 from the tar ball on haskell.org on OpenSolaris 2009.06, the X11 package then also installed quite easily too via cabal-install.
But when I tried a cabal install xmonad this error occured:
guenni@opensolaris:~$ cabal install xmonad Resolving dependencies... Configuring xmonad-0.9... Preprocessing library xmonad-0.9... Preprocessing executables for xmonad-0.9... Building xmonad-0.9...

The exception was: exit: ExitFailure 1
I may be wrong, but doesn't this indicate an error in xmonad's code itself, how can that be?
