Isn't it the kind of things Data Parallel Haskell is achieving ? I'm in no way an expert of the field, but from what I've read on the subject it looked like : I have a list of N elements and I want to map the function F on it. technically, I could spawn N processes and build the result from that,

Hi there. I'm trying to reinstall gitit after updating to ghc 6.12 and it's driving me crazy. I hope you will be able to help me troubleshoot this mess ... I'm starting from scratch again, using cabal. I will post more problems as they appears. $ cabal install gitit Resolving dependencies...
