Hi, On my system (Ubuntu Maverick with haskell-platform 2010.1.0.0.1) 'cabal install wx' results in the following:
Configuring wxcore-0.12.1.6... setup: Missing dependencies on foreign libraries: * Missing C libraries: wx_baseu-2.8, wx_baseu_net-2.8, wx_baseu_xml-2.8, wx_gtk2u_core-2.8, wx_gtk2u_adv-2.8, wx_gtk2u_html-2.8, wx_gtk2u_qa-2.8, wx_gtk2u_xrc-2.8, wx_gtk2u_aui-2.8, wx_gtk2u_richtext-2.8 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. cabal: Error: some packages failed to install: wx-0.12.1.6 depends on wxcore-0.12.1.6 which failed to install. wxcore-0.12.1.6 failed during the configure step. The exception was: ExitFailure 1 However: mmakow...@tallis:~/temp/wxcore-0.12.1.6$ ls -1 /usr/lib/libwx_*.so /usr/lib/libwx_baseu-2.8.so /usr/lib/libwx_baseu_net-2.8.so /usr/lib/libwx_baseu_xml-2.8.so /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_adv-2.8.so /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_aui-2.8.so /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_core-2.8.so /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_fl-2.8.so /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_gizmos-2.8.so /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_gizmos_xrc-2.8.so /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_gl-2.8.so /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_html-2.8.so /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_ogl-2.8.so /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_plot-2.8.so /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_qa-2.8.so /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_richtext-2.8.so /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_stc-2.8.so /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_svg-2.8.so /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_xrc-2.8.so Any idea what I'm doing wrong or how I can diagnose this further? It's my first attempt to use cabal so apologies if I missed something obvious.
