Hi Duncan, thanks! I builds on ghc 6.10.4 as it should. Two things:
* You didn't bump the version number of soegtk! * Just for my understanding: If I do $ cabal install Cabal-1.10 I get: > Resolving dependencies... > cabal: There is no available version of Cabal that satisfies ==1.10 which presumably means that ghc 6.10 does not satisfy the prerequisites of cabal 1.10. So we need to keep the Setup.hs files of the gtk packages working with Cabal 1.8 if we want to continues supporting ghc 6.10?
