Hi Rob,

I've built Edison 1.2.0.1 using ghc-6.6.  (I'm testing the macports,
formerly darwinports, packages for the new 6.6 release.)

The build goes fine, but the ./Setup register fails claiming that the directory /opt/local/lib/EdisonAPI-1.2/ghc-6.6/include does not exist. I can make the directory by hand, and the registration works. I have an ugly workaround, but I wanted to check with you that this is really a cabal bug. Installation
using ghc-6.4.2 on OS X/ppc worked just fine for me.

Best Wishes,
Greg


I'm not doing anything unusual with the cabal scripts (that I'm aware of!), so I expect this is a cabal or GHC bug.

BTW, could you run the test suite if you get a moment? Every data point helps.



Hi Rob,

OK, it looks like cabal has gone slightly broken again. :-(


Any idea what the problem is? Or why other people aren't yelling about it? Is it only the "register" command that is broken?


Here's the test data:

        OS X 10.4.8/ppc
        PowerBook G4, 1.5 GHz, 1 GB ram
ghc-6.6, cabal 1.1.6 as distributed with ghc-6.6, built using macports
        
test output:

Welcome to Darwin!

Excellent.  That's what I like to see.  Thanks!


Everything looks good but for the package registration.

I should add that I find the Edison package wonderfully easy
to work with.  It has really helped me out while writing simulation
of the custom communication system for a customer.  Many thanks
to you, Rob, and Chris Okasaki for this fine software!

Best Wishes,
Greg
