[Haskell-cafe] problems installing ghc-6.12.1-x86_64
Dear all, Help!! I am trying to build 6.12 on a fresh 64-bit Ubuntu, with no GHC installed yet. The compiler itself builds happily, but when I try to make install the Haskell platform, I eventually get the error Setup: GLUT-2.1.1.2: dependency OpenGL-2.2.1.1-b638210d1627880d532e3b035b53bcd2 doesn't exist (use --force to override) I can't even install cabal, because it requires having the ghc6 package, which is not installed. And bootstrapping cabal-install requires parsec and network, which also require ghc6. When I finally install ghc6 (why should I have to anyway?), it still thinks I am on 6.12, and ./bootstrap.sh can't find parsec with that number. Is there anyway to break out of this non-terminating reduction? Is YI solvable? :'( Andrew ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
