My purpose was indeed to start over. I've also removed .ghc. ... lots of output ... I think that is the informative part. Yes, I suppose so. :-) In my feeble defence: initially there were no errors. It wasn't until I tried --force-reinstalls that there was an error reported (gtk2hsC2hs was not able to run). Even this error, however, was well hidden. No different font, no different colour, no ASCII art drawing attention to it, nothing. So I missed it the first two times. If I had noticed it I would have known to include .cabal/bin in my PATH (it's in the error message). Cabal doesn't seem to believe in fail early, fail loudly? :-) ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
[Haskell-cafe] ANNOUNCE : Leksah 0.12.1.2 (fixes some metadata issues)
This release has an important bug fix for the metadata download. When metadata was downloaded using libcurl it was not treated as binary data. If you used one of our binary installers or if you built Leksah with the -flibcurl flag then it is likely you have bad metadata files. To fix this please install Leksah 0.12.1.2, then delete your ~/.leksah-0.12/metadata folder to force Leksah to download the metadata files again. The first time you run leksah after doing this it will take a while for leksah to update the metadata (you can track its progress by looking in the metadata directory). If you choose to generate your metadata locally or you used wget to download (the default if you cabal installed leksah) then your metadata should be ok. There are some other bug fixes in this release including one for metadata generation for users with lots of .cabal files (some lazy IO was leaving file handles open). Source is in Hackage and https://github.com/leksah Binary Installers Use ghc --version to work out which one you need.
