Re: [Haskell-cafe] [xmonad] Cabal install problem

[Albert Y. C. Lai]

I am also interested in the complete output of "ghc -v" and "ghc-pkg 
list -v".


Meanwhile, the pros may notice that


Configuring Cabal-1.10.1.0...


is very suspicious because GHC 7.0.2 comes with exactly Cabal-1.10.1.0, 
so there is no normal reason why it is being re-installed 
(cabal-install's bootstrap.sh certainly detects that, and I have just 
tested it); and immediately next



Setup: At least the following dependencies are missing:
base>=4&&  <3&&  >=2&&  <5, unix>=2.0&&  <2.5


base >= 4 && <3 is very very ill, usually a sign of a very messed up 
collection of packages.

bootstrap.py?  There should not be any python scripts involved in
installing a binary version of GHC.  Where did you download it from?

After installing it, does it work?  If you type ghci at a command
prompt, what happens?
