So I've got this program GenI darcs get http://code.haskell.org/GenI
If I try to cabal install it: cd libGenI; cabal install; cd ..; cd GenI; cabal install; cd .. cabal-install tries to install wxcore even though it already is installed (and in my user package database, for what it's worth) Has anybody else run into this kind of problem? Is this something we've already dealt with? For now the solution seems to be for me to install GenI by hand (sigh) I realise it may be a cabal-install issue, and the wxHaskell build instructions mention some problems in the cabal-install dependency tracking. Do we have anything more specific? Bug numbers? Is this something I should be mailing the cabal-install folks about? Thanks!
