Hi,

After following the quick unix instructions here:

http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/wiki/CabalInstall#QuickInstallationonUnix

Cabal itself seems to download and install okay, but then the HTTP dependency fails, I think. I get the following error anyway (and the same error if I re-run).

Checking installed packages for ghc-6.6.1...
parsec is already installed and the version is ok.
network is already installed and the version is ok.
Cabal is already installed and the version is ok.
HTTP-4000.0.4 will be downloaded and installed.
zlib-0.5.0.0 will be downloaded and installed.

Error during cabal-install bootstrap:

My GHC is:

cabal-install-0.6.2 # ghc -v

I'm running OS X 10.5.6 on a 1.3 GHz PowerPC G4.

Any ideas? :-)

Thanks,
