[Haskell-cafe] Trying to install hpodder on OS X Lion

2011-10-21 Thread seanh 
I'd really like to get hpodder installed on OS X Lion, I can't find it
packaged anywhere (macports, homebrew...) Has anyone got it working?

I have the haskell platform installed from the pkg file from haskell.org:

http://hackage.haskell.org/platform/mac.html

So I tried `cabal install hpodder` but it failed. First I get a lot of
warnings like:

ld: warning: text reloc in _cZh_str to _stg_ap_pp_fast
ld: warning: text reloc in _cZh_str to _stg_ap_p_fast
ld: warning: text reloc in _cZh_str to _stg_ap__fast
ld: warning: text reloc in _cZh_str to _stg_ap_pppv_fast
ld: warning: text reloc in _cZh_str to _stg_ap_ppp_fast
ld: warning: text reloc in _cZh_str to _stg_ap_ppv_fast
ld: warning: text reloc in _cZh_str to _stg_ap_pp_fast
ld: warning: text reloc in _cZh_str to _stg_ap_pv_fast
ld: warning: text reloc in _cZh_str to _stg_ap_p_fast
ld: warning: text reloc in _cZh_str to _stg_ap_n_fast
ld: warning: text reloc in _cZh_str to _stg_ap_l_fast
ld: warning: text reloc in _cZh_str to _stg_ap_d_fast
ld: warning: text reloc in _cZh_str to _stg_ap_f_fast
ld: warning: text reloc in _cZh_str to _stg_ap_v_fast
ld: warning: text reloc in _cZh_str to _stg_ap_pp_info

I get each of those warnings many times in a row. There are some other
warning when compiling things as well. Then I eventually get:

cabal: Error: some packages failed to install:
hpodder-1.1.5 failed during the building phase. The exception was:
ExitFailure 1

Here's the error from the compiler before that:

Commands/SetStatus.hs:59:33:
Ambiguous type variable `e0' in the constraint:
  (E.Exception e0) arising from a use of `E.catch'
Probable fix: add a type signature that fixes these type variable(s)
In the expression:
  E.catch
(E.evaluate (read x))
(\ _
   - fail
$   Invalid status supplied; use one of:  ++ possibleStatuses)
In a case alternative:
Just x
  - E.catch
   (E.evaluate (read x))
   (\ _
  - fail
   $   Invalid status supplied; use one of:  ++
possibleStatuses)
In a stmt of a 'do' expression:
newstatus - case lookup status args of {
   Just x
 - E.catch
  (E.evaluate (read x))
  (\ _
 - fail
  $   Invalid status supplied; use
one of:  ++ possibleStatuses)
   Nothing
 - fail
  setstatus: --status required; see
hpodder setstatus --help }

 The exceptions API changed in GHC 6.10, and the 'hpodder' package on
 hackage hasn't been updated to accommodate those changes.

 It looks like the version up on github should no longer have this error:
 https://github.com/jgoerzen/hpodder

 It may have other errors, though - I haven't tried it :-)

Thanks. Any advice on how to install it from source? I'm not familiar
with haskell stuff, and the instructions are missing:
