Hi
It appears I can?t install reactive-banana-5.0.0.1:
cabal install reactive-banana
Resolving dependencies...
cabal: cannot configure mtl-2.1. It requires transformers ==0.3.*
For the dependency on transformers ==0.3.* there are these packages:
transformers-0.3.0.0. However none of them are available.
transformers-0.3.0.0 was excluded because reactive-banana-0.5.0.1 requires
transformers ==0.2.*
How can I solve this ?
thank you,
Miguel

Give Sage (http://www.sagemath.org/) a try. It combines several open
source libraries into a cohesive system, something like Mathematica.
Version 5.0 will be released Real Soon Now.

I have uploaded reactive-banana-0.5.0.2 which relaxes the version
constraint on the transformers package. Try the new version.
