It looks like the Utils module somehow got left out of that package because xmonad-utils-0.1 does have a small Utils module. I would blame the author or the person who uploaded it to hackage. Alternatively, you could try putting the Utils.hs from 0.1 in the 0.1.1 src/ directory and hope that it builds. * On Monday, March 09 2009, Santanu Chatterjee wrote:

Hi everybody,

A few moments ago, I found out about cabal while trying to install xmonad in fedora10. xmonad is now up and running. Then I tried exploring cabal, and tried installing xmonad-utils using it. But I am getting the following error: --------------------- [sc@yoda xmonad-utils-0.1.1]$ cabal install xmonad-utils Resolving dependencies... Configuring xmonad-utils-0.1.1... Preprocessing executables for xmonad-utils-0.1.1... Building xmonad-utils-0.1.1... [1 of 1] Compiling Main ( src/Hxsel.hs, dist/build/hxsel/hxsel-tmp/Main.o ) Linking dist/build/hxsel/hxsel ... [1 of 1] Compiling Main ( src/Hxput.hs, dist/build/hxput/hxput-tmp/Main.o ) Linking dist/build/hxput/hxput ...

src/Hslock.hsc:37:7: Could not find module `Utils': Use -v to see a list of the files searched for. cabal: Error: some packages failed to install: xmonad-utils-0.1.1 failed during the building phase. The exception was: exit: ExitFailure 1 ---------------------------

Is it a bug or am I missing something? I have close to zero knowledge of haskell, but I am trying to learn it.

My ghc version is 6.8.3. Contents of cabal packages directory: ---------------------- [sc@yoda xmonad-utils-0.1.1]$ ls ~/.cabal/packages/hackage.haskell.org/ 00-index.tar build-reports.log ghc-paths MonadCatchIO-mtl utf8-string X11-xft xmonad xmonad-eval 00-index.tar.gz conjure hint Unixutils X11 xmobar xmonad-contrib xmonad-utils -----------------------

Thanks in advance for your help.
