In Haskell, -- is the start of a single-line comment (like // in Java), and cabal-install has taken that for its configuration file (rather than # like in most config files). So remove the -- from the front of the line to get it working. -- Ivan Lazar Miljenovic [email protected] IvanMiljenovic.wordpress.com _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
