> are you certain haddock depends on lambdabot? that seems very strange to me.
Thomas, I also thought haddock should be an easy build, but it just won't do it. /home2/<user>/garden/haddock-0.8> runhaskell ./Setup.lhs install Installing: --prefix=~/cabal/lib/haddock-0.8/ghc-6.4 & --prefix=~/cabal/bin haddock-0.8... Then it stopped and nothing got done. (I even checked rc=0 but the lib/bin dir does not have trace of haddock!) I don't think haddock "has" to depend on lamdbabot. But I saw "Skipping HaddockHoogle" during the build. Isn't the Hoogle thing related to Lambdabot? Or they are unrelated. Again being new to the Haskell world (only a few months), I am not an expert on what depends on what. It would be nice to have a "type system" to check the dependency of the many packages. Perl CPAN does a good job on this. Steve ---------------------------------------------- To haskell-cafe@haskell.org cc Subject [Haskell-cafe] How to thoroughly clean up Haskell stuff on linux Hi, I have been hacking the Haskell installation a few days on Redhat Linux. GHC 6.6 -> 6.6.1 -> Lambdabot does not work. Downgrade to GHC 6.4 -> Still not working, tried cabal-install to simplify my life, but no luck. Then install Cabal, Haddock -> Haddock cannot install bc Lambdabot is not there. (And some dependency issues.) Remove .ghci, Haddock still not work. It seems the Haskell world (outside the beautiful GHC) is in a recursive non-functional blackhole. Anyway, now my question is, how do I thoroughly clean up Haskell? (And maybe try again after a few days of rest.) My environment is Redhat Linux, install most stuff on /home/<user>/<product>/ where <product> = GHC, Lambdabot, cabal, haddock, etc. It seems there are some hidden files/dirs, .GHC, .ghci, anything else?
