Hi, feel free to try the debian packages here: http://people.debian.org/~nomeata/xmonad/ The should probably work on ubuntu as well. If not, let me know and we can work it out. I also haven’t packaged the contribs yet, but I’ll do that (faster if I know people wait for them) Greetings, Joachim Am Montag, den 24.12.2007, 18:30 -0500 schrieb Jevin Maltais:
Hi and Merry Christmas! I'm trying to get xmonad working on my Ubuntu Gusty install. I'm getting ideas from this link on how to install it (it's only for xmonad 0.4): http://erl.nfshost.com/wordpress/2007/11/02/installing-xmonad-on-ubuntu-guts...
So for mtl-1.1.0 and X11-1.4.1 I do: sudo runhaskell Setup.* configure; runhaskell Setup.* build sudo runhaskell Setup.* install;
For and xmonad-0.5 I do: pushd xmonad-0.5/; runhaskell Setup.* configure --prefix=$HOME --user; runhaskell Setup.* build runhaskell Setup.* install
I get the following error for each of the "runhaskell" lines in the xmond-0.5 dir: Setup.lhs: xmonad.cabal:25: 'Executable' stanza starting with field 'flag small_base description'
Here is the output of "ghc-pkg list" /usr/lib/ghc-6.6.1/package.conf: Cabal-1.1.6.2, X11-1.4.1, base-2.1.1, filepath-1.0, (ghc-6.6.1), haskell98-1.0, mtl-1.0.1, mtl-1.1.0.0, parsec-2.0, readline-1.0, regex-base-0.72, regex-compat-0.71, regex-posix-0.71, rts-1.0, stm-2.0, template-haskell-2.1, unix-2.1
Any ideas? Jevin
