I guess I am going to start with emacs -- since that seems to work (re Johan Tibell above). However I do have an issue regarding debian packaging. At first I installed ghc This brought in ghc6 ghc6-doc libbsd-dev libgmp3-dev libgmpxx4ldbl I also added haskell98-report haskell98-tutorial darcs Then I discovered haskell-platform. I was pleased to discover that the link took me directly to the squeeze repos so there is no version mismatch between haskell-platorm and squeeze. apt-getting haskell-platform gave me alex cabal-install happy haskell-platform libghc6-cgi-dev libghc6-deepseq-dev libghc6-glut-dev libghc6-haskell-src-dev libghc6-html-dev libghc6-http-dev libghc6-hunit-dev libghc6-network-dev libghc6-opengl-dev libghc6-parallel-dev libghc6-parsec2-dev libghc6-quickcheck2-dev libghc6-stm-dev libghc6-xhtml-dev However when trying to compile ghc from source I got an error that wanted ghc6-prof So I got that Looking around in synaptic (gui for apt) I find that there are a large number of libghc-somethings that I still have not got. So then the question: Whats the real point of the haskell-platform package -- if specific libraries have to be got separately? _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
