I notice you're having trouble running darcs-benchmark, and that darcs-benchmark seems to have tripped up on your missing ~/.darcs-benchmark directory. Could you try the following, please? darcs get --tag . http://code.haskell.org/darcs/darcs-benchmark darcs pull -p 'Create results directory earlier.' cabal configure && cabal build && cabal install Sorry for the trouble.
