But I note that the wiki page for wxHaskell says to have a
cabal/wxc-xxx/ghcversion
I don't have that either. I thus conclude, that you don't need it and it
doesn't seem to be the source of your problem.
cabal install wxc
Resolving dependencies...
command line: cannot satisfy -package Cabal-1.10.2.0:
Which version of Cabal (note: the library, not the tool cabal-install) do you
have installed? You can check that by running ghc-pkg list from the command
line.
Maybe it's a problem with your package database (you can check by running
ghc-pkg check and if it is broken you can try ghc-pkg recache).

Yes, I did just this. Using your flags all of wxWidgets compile, and all
samples run.
But I note that the wiki page for wxHaskell says to have a
cabal/wxc-xxx/ghcversion
On the path, but I don't have any such directory in my cabal (although I did
set the path...).
There is a wxdirect-0.90.0.1 installed there, nothing else new of wx*.
Trying to do the cabal installs, I used the version 21 of wx-config, and still
get these errors:

This problem can usually be solved by installing the system packages that
provide these libraries (you may need the -dev versions). If the libraries
are already installed but in a non-standard location then you can use the
flags --extra-include-dirs= and --extra-lib-dirs= to specify where they are.

Using your FLAGS did help in the build of wxWidgets, now all of the samples
compile and run.
Upgrading to version 26 of wx-config changes the errors to this:

Does anyone run WxHaskell 2.9 on Windows?
Yes.
library files: gcc_mswuddll gcc_mswudll
It should create a wxmsw293u_gcc_custom.dll (and maybe a
wxmsw293u_gl_gcc_custom.dll for OpenGL support).
Do you run cabal install wxc from Msys-Bash or from cmd.exe? You should use
the latter.
Also, which make flags did you use? I compiled wxWidgets-2.9.3 with
the following command (from msys-bash):
cd your-wxWidgets-2.9.3-dir/build/msw
mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc BUILD=release SHARED=1 MONOLITHIC=1
Then, with the wx-config.exe from the wiki page in PATH, I open cmd.exe and
type:
cabal install wxc
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Fabian
