There's a script bootstrap.sh in the directory, run that, it wgets zlib and HTTP and installs them, after that, it installs cabal-install and you're ready to go.

And to make many, many peoples life easier the binaries could have been included in ghc 6.10.2 (but I know there are some philosophical reasons against it). -- Lennart On Sun, Apr 5, 2009 at 5:48 PM, Don Stewart d...@galois.com wrote: daniel.is.fischer: Am Sonntag 05 April 2009 10:24:25 schrieb Ashley Yakeley: Duncan Coutts wrote: In the mean time you can just: $ cabal install time Where do I get the cabal command?

Has it been intentionally excluded from 6.10.2? Yes, the maintainer of the time package asked for it to be removed: Can I remove the time package from the GHC build process? I want to update it but I don't want to deal with GHC's autotools stuff or break the GHC build. Then I should probably hold off on installing the new version for now. Any estimate on when this problem will be fixed? The time package will be part of the first platform release (assuming we get enough volunteers to do the platform release!)
