#51: cabal is not able to install (at least) HXT on Windows ------------------------------------+--------------------------------------- Reporter: azreal1...@hotmail.com | Owner: dons Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: 2009.2.1 Component: Platform | Resolution: Keywords: | ------------------------------------+--------------------------------------- Comment (by anonymous):
This is not specific to the Haskell Platform installer. The problem is that curl uses a `./configure` script. The `./configure` scripts generally do not work on Windows unless you have mingw and MSYS installed and are running `cabal install` from within an MSYS shell. However the error message is poor. The ticket for that is here: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/403 -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.haskell.org/haskell-platform/ticket/51#comment:2> haskell-platform <http://trac.haskell.org/haskell-platform> The Haskell Platform: a comprehensive and robust collection of Haskell libraries _______________________________________________ Haskell-platform mailing list Haskell-platform@projects.haskell.org http://projects.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/haskell-platform
