Hi Miguel! Thanks for the reply!
Yes, I also took the latest darcs version of wxHaskell, HaXml 1.19.2, and polyparse. I had to do some minor tweaks to the Blobs source code (mainly Text.Parse stuff, no big deal really). I used wxGTK 2.6.4, --with-opengl and --disable-sharing (otherwise I got link errors when linking Blobs). However I'm using GHC 6.8.2 on Fedora 8. BTW what do you think is the best distro for doing Haskell development? Now I just switched from Windows to Linux, so this is all very very new to me. However I do like the Linux way of settings things up, so I'm planning to dig a bit deeper in the Linux world. Not easy because I know a lot about Windows development, so giving that up is hard. I'll take a look at the website you mentioned. The fact to you have it running gives me confidance it is possible :) Cheers, Peter On Thu, 2008-01-17 at 14:51 +0000, Miguel Vilaça wrote: > Peter Verswyvelen wrote: > > I'm trying to build http://www.cs.york.ac.uk/fp/darcs/Blobs using GHC > > 6.8.2.
