Configuring HUnit-1.2.5.2...
Setup: Use of GHC's environment variable GHC_PACKAGE_PATH is incompatible
with
Cabal. Use the flag --package-db to specify a package database (it can be
used
multiple times).
Error:
Configuring the HUnit-1.2.5.2 package failed
make: *** [build.stamp] Error 2
The envar GHC_PACKAGE_PATH mentioned in the error message is not set.
I apologise if this is the wrong medium to make this report; I found no
contact info on the haskell-platform download site.
