Hi cafe! Probably you all know how to do this, but I myself found confused when building the Haskell Platform in Linux for my first time. I was using Linux for my first time too! The first problem I encountered was to decide what linux packages install to make the ./configure successful in both GHC binary distribution and the Haskell Platform. So I collected the names of the minimum set of packages that you need to have installed before starting with GHC and the Platform in a small blog post:

This thought is what brought me here to make it public. Who knows, maybe I am saving somebody of some google searches and trials and errors. With my best intentions, Daniel Díaz. -- E-mail sent by Daniel Díaz Casanueva let f x = x in x
