(I did have to start a mingw shell to do this, it won't run from a cmd line.)
Not sure what to make of it...
I still wish I could just get a binary to install like was available from
wxPack for 2.8! :-)

Yes, probably wxc is not installed, but that is the problem I am stuck at I
think.

Well, that?s exactly why I use homebrew and you should too . :-) It?s designed
to make installing stuff easier, it will also download and install for you any
dependencies of what you are trying to install. It?s quite easy to install
homebrew just type in the terminal:
/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(/usr/bin/curl -fsSL
https://raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/master/Library/Contributions/install_homebrew.rb)?
Don?t use sudo. If you can?t install to /usr/local then make sure you own that
directory, since homebrew wants to make sure you don?t need to sudo to install
stuff.

Well, when I had wxHaskell working I compiled a wxHaskell program and it worked
but I didn?t test wxWidgets independently.

No need for that, the pre-installed ones are older versions.

Hi Miguel
As you say, the pre-loaded mac os version is older than 2.9 (mine is 2.8).
I was not very clear - it was not really 'removing' the old one that I meant to
ask about, but how did you
perform the instruction (at
http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/WxHaskell/MacOS_X which says:
"3. Check your path to make sure you are using your wxWidgets and not the
default Mac one"
I have installed and built wxWidgets 2.9 but not made any changes to path
variables (whichever may be involved).
If I type command "wx-config --release" it tells me the widgets version is 2.8.
If I type command "wx-config --prefix it tells me it is in "/usr"
If I type command "wx-config --static it says there is no config to match this.
So I conclude (if I interpret it right...) that I have a dll version of widgets
2.8 in my path at /usr
Does homebrew take care of this somehow when it loads 2.9?
I am not sure if anything else is using this 2.8 dll, and/or how to best set
the path up so I can use 2.9
with wxHaskell.
Sounds like I should definitely take a look at homebrew, so thanks for the
recommendation.
I'd also be interested to know what you get in response to wx-config (with
parameters as above) if you have not
made any manual changes to path variables etc. yourself.
I also just saw this posted by Gregory Guthrie in another wxHaskell thread
("wxHaskell install errors"):
"If the libraries are already installed but in a non-standard location then you
can use the
flags --extra-include-dirs= and --extra-lib-dirs= to specify where they
are."
This makes me think that the 'instruction 3' in the wxHaskell macosx
instructions I quoted above is perhaps not
necessary, or at least there is an alternative when it comes to the cabal step.
This may solve one of my
problems/questions at least, but needs more investigation.
Cheers/ Henry

To install wxWidgets you can find how in the 'Readme' as I did, or you can
use what I have used on windows 7:
cd c:\wx\build\msw
mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc BUILD=debug
I'm not sure if the 'BUILD=debug' is really needed, but it worked for me.
Hope it helps,
Carlos Gomez
