I'm still trying to figure out how to do this on ubuntu. If this winds up being a garden path I'll try on debian next, but at least I'm learning a lot about getting haskell stuff built.
Anyway, since I'm on a virtualized linux box, I decided to get a fresh start, unmounted my original OS profile and installed a fresh dapper 6. I then changed /etc/apt/sources.list to be okay for grabbing .debs from feisty. (No longer doing the build from source thing.) apt-get install ghc6, ok from feisty. (Is there another repo that gets all the extra libs at one go?) sudo apt-cache search -o APT::Cache-Limit=25165824 ghc6 | grep -i missing libghc6-hdbc-missingh-dev - Integration of HDBC with MissingH, GHC version libghc6-missingh-dev - Library of utility functions for Haskell, GHC6 package [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/haskellinstalls/hsh>sudo apt-cache search -o hoorah, my apt cache search command seems ok. sudo apt-cache search -o APT::Cache-Limit=25165824 ghc6 | grep -i hsh [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/haskellinstalls/hsh> too bad, still no hsh in ubuntu repo. darcs get http://darcs.complete.org/hsh/ (Or should I have used something else?) runghc Setup.hs configure same problems as before. But starting afresh seems to have detangled the issues I was having with packaging confusion. At least now I can apt-get install missingh And some other dependency following is made easier. Finally configure for hsh works. But then [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/haskellinstalls/hsh>sudo runghc Setup.lhs install Setup.lhs: Warning: The field "hs-source-dir" is deprecated, please use hs-source-dirs. Installing: /usr/local/lib/HSH-1.2.1/ghc-6.6 & /usr/local/bin HSH-1.2.1... Setup.lhs: Error: Could not find module: HSH with any suffix: ["hi"] So, I seem to be stuck at this point. 2007/4/2, Thomas Hartman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Well, I guess I spoke to soon. After building ghc6 from feisty as described above, I tried building missingh and have basically what I started with. Is there something I can tweak to get the above straightened out using those nice deb packages, or do I have to do all the dependency chasing involved with building from source? Or is there another way? If this is too debian oriented please yell at me and I will ask about this on a deb/ubuntu forum. thanks... Note, should have mentioned, after doing as my above post describes, I installed all the newly generated deb packages with dpkg -i *.deb **************** [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/haskellInstalls/missingh>runghc Setup.hs configure Configuring MissingH-0.18.3... configure: /usr/lib/ghc-6.6/bin/ghc-pkg configure: Dependency unix-any: using unix-1.0 Setup.hs: cannot satisfy dependency network-any [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/haskellInstalls/missingh>which runghc /usr/lib/ghc-6.6/bin/runghc # note, definitely the thing I installed today: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/haskellInstalls/missingh>ls -l `which runghc` -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 300716 Apr 2 09:17 /usr/lib/ghc-6.6/bin/runghc [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/haskellInstalls/missingh> # and I installed it from deb ghc6, dpkg recognizes it [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/haskellInstalls/missingh>dpkg -S /usr/lib/ghc-6.6/bin/runghc ghc6: /usr/lib/ghc-6.6/bin/runghc # it does seem like ghc6 comes with a network package [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/learning/haskell>apt-cache showpkg ghc6 | grep -i network 6.4.1-2ubuntu2 - libghc6-readline-dev libghc6-stm-dev libghc6-hgl-dev libghc6-x11-dev libghc6-fgl-dev libghc6-mtl-dev libghc6-hunit-dev libghc6-quickcheck-dev libghc6-network-dev libghc6-haskell-src-dev libghc6-parsec-dev libghc6-cabal-dev libghc6-unix-dev libghc6-template-haskell-dev libghc6-haskell98-dev libghc6-base-dev libghc6-rts-dev ghc haskell-compiler # I get lost here.
