Hi Adam, Thank you for leading me to the templates! Searching for them on the Lucid machine yielded that they indeed existed, but were owned by the package 'pandoc'. After installing this on the Maverick system, things went fine! /Karl On 2011-03-09 19:28, adam vogt wrote:

Hi,

I'm trying to make a developement package of xmonad for ubuntu. When I run

runhaskell GenerateManpage.hs

under Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick Meerkat), I get the following error:

GenerateManpage.hs: user error (Pattern match failure in do expression at util/GenerateManpage.hs:79:4-17)

The following package versions are installed: libghc6-pandoc-dev 1.5.1.1-5build1 libghc6-regex-base-dev 0.93.1-8 libghc6-regex-posix-dev 0.94.1-2

I've tried running it under Ubuntu 10.04, and there it works. There, these version are installed: libghc6-regex-base-dev 0.93.1-6 libghc6-regex-posix-dev 0.93.2-5 libghc6-pandoc-dev 1.5.1.1-3ubuntu1

It also works under up-to-date Arch Linux with these versions: haskell-pandoc 1.8.1.1-1 haskell-regex-base 0.93.2-1.1 haskell-regex-posix 0.94.2-1

I can't really see what in GenerateManpage.hs is so sensitive to these versions. It might of course be related to something completely different. Can someone help me out here? Karl,

Pandoc has changed enough to break GenerateManpage.hs since we first used it for the manpage. But I think your issue is that ubuntu does not seem to include the templates listed in [1] if we can believe [2]. Maybe there is another package you must install. You could use your own template if you modify the GenerateManpage to put something like:

template <- readFile "path/to/your/own/template.man"

where we currently have:

Right template <- getDefaultTemplate Nothing "man"

and the same for the html template.
