I've tried your suggestion, and with the --global flag it does work, but only if I keep using the global flag, when I just install as user again same thing happens. Maybe something's wrong with the user package conf.
Unfortunately installing as global requires admin rights and installs the tools as admins only, so I don't really want to continue using it like that. -----Original Message----- From: thebenmach...@googlemail.com [mailto:thebenmach...@googlemail.com] On Behalf Of Ben Millwood Sent: Friday, April 16, 2010 20:57 To: Phyx Cc: Ivan Lazar Miljenovic; haskell-cafe@haskell.org Subject: Re: [Haskell-cafe] ghc package problem On Fri, Apr 16, 2010 at 2:40 PM, Phyx <loneti...@gmail.com> wrote: > So same error.

Perhaps there is some disagreement in either Cabal or GHC or both as to where those packages/that package file should be? Perhaps try a cabal install --global haskell-src-exts and see if that makes a difference, or attach --user to a configure command. _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
