Hello. I've noticed that on a fresh Ubuntu VM (10.10) the haskell platform as installed by "sudo apt-get install haskell-platform" can't cabal update out of the box under some proxies, including mine and some of my friends'. That was very annoying for me because I was advertising my haskell app to these friends and they could not easily install it because of this error.
I've heard that haskell-platform 2010.2.0.0 fixed this bug (and indeed, on a Windows machine hosting that VM it is installed and the bug does not appear). I'm now testing it on this vm.. Would it be sensible to update the ubuntu package to 2010.2.0.0 then? (I don't know what is the process, but I'm hoping for a response from someone who does) http://hpaste.org/42448/cabal_update_failure - on ubuntu guest vm http://hpaste.org/42449/cabal_update_success - on windows host -- Eugene Kirpichov Senior Software Engineer, Grid Dynamics http://www.griddynamics.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
