Hi all I've been trying to compile WxHaskell with GHC 6.6.3, as this is the stable version in Debian. I know I should have done this regularly, but I have unfortunately been getting into the bad habit of only compiling with GHC 6.8.1 and GHC 6.8.2.
First of all, I assume that if people want to compile with old versions of GHC, they will have to live with using the Makefile version. E.g.: chmod 755 configure ../configure --with-opengl --prefix=/usr/local/ make .... Luckily, it all went nicely except for this patch: "Sun Aug 19 22:42:30 CEST 2007 shelarcy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * Use Data.Time.getCurrentTime instead of (System.)Time.getClockTime to avoid build failure by generated non-UTF8 String" The problem is that the module imports Data.Time, which do not exist in GHC 6.3.3. If I uncommit the patch everything compiles. And the examples in samples/wx runs - the two I tried anyway. Anyway, my question is, how do we remove this dependency on Data.Time for GHC 6.6 only, without forcing GHC 6.8 users to also not use Data.Time? Also, do other people compile with GHC 6.6? Or is it just me who have to, because Debian's is so out of date.
