Rustom,
I've not looked at your forums link, what Vagif might be referring to is,
since you've already got your compiler installed, installing the platform
is /just/ compiling the remaining modules that are part of the platform. Of
course, building the compiler from source would take a very long
Oops my bad. The script downloads and installs binary, already compiled
ghc.
So it certainly does not take 2 hours, i just did it on 2 computers and it
takes less than a couple of minutes. I did not though install the entire
haskell platform, only ghc itself.

What is the current status on this?
Is 13.10 going to correct this?

I was hoping that something a little less painful than
That will give you only ghc 7.6.2. If you want latest haskell-platform,
source compile is the only option. And btw it is not THAT painful :)
You run the script, wait 2-3 minutes and tada!
