Hi, when installing pandoc package, which has digest somewhere in dependencies the usual cabal install stucks because zlib.h is missing, so I explicitly installed zlib package first, then installing digest (can also replace that directly with pandoc here) with the --extra-include-dirs parameter set:
Prelude System.Cmd> > rawSystem "cabal" ["install", "digest", "-v3", "--user", "-- > build-log=d:/temp/log/build-$$pkgid-$$compiler-msys.log", "--reinstall", > "--data > dir=$$prefix/haskell-pkgdata", > "--extra-include-dirs=C:\\Users\\daniel\\AppData\ > \Roaming\\cabal\\zlib-0.5.2.0\\ghc-6.12.1\\include"] Is there something to improve in one of the packages cabal file to overcome the need to explicitly specify the header file locations of already installed packages or is that a consequence of not installing them as developer packages simply, so i. e. to have the header file zlib.h at the specified location is more a bonus to have in that situation?
