So, I recently tried to install WxHaskell because it was a dependency of GenI. I tried to emerge it (I use Gentoo), but it wanted to pull in GHC 6.4 (!). I immediately canceled it and went and got it from darcs.
After a few failed darcs gets of <http://darcs.haskell.org/wxhaskell>, I finally got it. First, I checked that WxWidgets was installed: > $ emerge -p wxGTK > These are the packages that would be merged, in order: > > Calculating dependencies... done! > [ebuild R ] x11-libs/wxGTK-2.8.7.1-r1 Good. WxHaskell doesn't seem cabalized, boo, but let's continue on: > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:1015~/bin/wxhaskell>make realclean > [ 5:48PM] > rm -f -r out/* > rmdir out > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:1016~/bin/wxhaskell>./configure --prefix=/home/gwern/bin > > [ 5:48PM] > checking system: > wx-config found > ghc found > ghc-pkg found > haddock found > install program found > > creating configuration files: > config > config/config.mk > config/wxcore.pkg > config/wx.pkg > config/wxhaskell-register.bat > config/wxhaskell-unregister.bat > config/setcd > config/macosx-install.info > config/macosx-postinstall > config/macosx-app > config/wxhaskell.spec > config/prologue.txt > config/cache.txt > > configuration: > library: wxhaskell-0.10.1 (release 0) > compiler: ghc-6.8.2 > wxwidgets: gtk-2.6.4 > with openGL: no > with stc: no > library dir: /home/gwern/bin/lib > > done: > type 'make' to build wxhaskell. > type 'make install' to install wxhaskell. > type 'make help' to receive help on all other make targets Looks good. I doubt I need 3D acceleration in my widgets anyway.

I certainly didn't add in any symbolic links, much less loop them. And it seems to happen irregardless of the configure flags. -- gwern DSD JRB Skipjack IRIDF ISDS Keyhole BIOLWPN Security 97 RG
