It does work, just make sure you're using a sufficiently new version of Wine, git or a development version from http://winehq.org/download Older versions had a bug which broke cabal install, but I submitted a patch for that. What doesn't work is the installer for cygwin if you require that, otherwise msys-git works fine for providing a bash to run configure scripts, so long as you install mingw and update your path, things will work pretty much the same as Windows. http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/GHC_under_WINE -Jeff _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
