it works, thanks :) On Thu, 26 Feb 2009, Adam Vogt wrote:
Some of the flags for configuration are needed to avoid that issuse: --constraint="base<4"
When you configure it multiple times, the older settings are lost (consistent with all other build systems).
If you configure as such: it should work.
runhaskell Setup configure --disable-optimization --prefix=/usr \ --flags="with_xft" --constraint="base<4" || return 1

i need to add xft and utf-8 support to xmobar, so i chose to install aur/xmobar; i add two lines in PKGBUILD for that:
runhaskell Setup configure --flags="with_utf8" || return 1 runhaskell Setup configure --flags="with_xft" || return 1
then i tried to build aur/xmobar, but i got the following error msg:

whats wrong here? it seems the community/xmobar has no utf8 and xft enabled, but it's really needed for CJK users.
