----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
I recently installed the hmatrix package on a Windows 7 system via using
the Haskell Platform (installed only a few months ago). The hmatrix
installation appeared to be successful (with an OK on foreign functions),
and I can successfully compile Haskell programs that use hmatrix
functions. However, when I attempt to run these programs I get the follow
system error:
"The program can't start because lapack.dll is missing from your
computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."
I get similar error messages if I attempt to use hmatrix functions in ghci
(after importing Numeric.LinearAlgebra).
The file lapack.dll is clearly visible in my folder C:\Haskell\gsl, which
also includes a gsl subfolder, blas.dll, libgsl-0.dll, and
libgslcblas-0.dll. I installed hmatrix with the following parameters
cabal install hmatrix --extra-lib-dir=C:\Haskell\gsl --extra-include-
dir=C:\Haskell\gsl
Why is lapack.dll inaccessible at runtime despite successful installation
of the package?
