Ok, I've finally sorted it! This had me completely stumped for ages. then. I was confused because Homebrew was denying anything to do with cabal-install: % brew uninstall cabal-install Error: No such keg: /usr/local/Cellar/cabal-install I flailed around a bit, and tried replacing the Haskell Platform binary with one from Homebrew. Then I discovered I had GHC installed via Homebrew. I didn't think it was a problem, then I realised what my PATH was set to: PATH=$HOME/Library/Haskell/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin So zsh was getting cabal from $HOME/Library/Haskell/bin, but then finding ghc in /usr/local/bin (Homebrew) before /usr/bin (Haskell Platform). I have no idea what combinations of libraries it was using. I have no idea if recompiling ghc from inside Homebrew would have helped, or uninstalling ghc and using Homebrew's haskell-platform package (or recipe, or whatever they're called). Thanks for your help. I'd really love to be able to help with the Mac continuous integration problem, unfortunately, I just can't spare the time to figure out these sorts of things when I get stuck. (You could argue that since this time I *did* spare the time, I just disproved my point. Stubbornness got the better of me.) There must surely be an simpler yet reliable way for non-Haskell-developers to install darcs on a Mac though. Anyway, I now have darcs 2.8.4 installed, and that's the main thing :-D Thanks Ash -- http://www.patchspace.co.uk/ http://www.linkedin.com/in/ashmoran _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list darcs-users@darcs.net http://lists.osuosl.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
