Brandon: Thanks. I did have to install some gtk libraries. I am also
working in a sandbox now. This moved things ahead somewhat. But I am
getting this now from 'cabal install soegtk':<br>
<br>
Graphics/SOE/Gtk.hs:94:18:<br>
Could not find module `System.Time'<br>
It is a member of the hidden package `old-time-1.1.0.1'.<br>
Perhaps you need to add `old-time' to the build-depends in your
.cabal file.<br>
Use -v to see a list of the files searched for.<br>
Failed to install soegtk-0.9.12.2<br>
<br>
I have forgotten anything I once knew about using cabal. I apologize
for not learning how to deal with the above on my own, but I am
hoping to get over this hump as quickly and painlessly as possible
so I don't lose my momentum getting back to Haskell.<br>
<br>
So, can anyone give me a hint how to fix the above?<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
<br>

Do you have the devel libraries needed by gtk installed? cabal
cannot install them for you, and the runtime libraries are not
sufficient. You'll want libcairo2-dev for this, and others for
other gtk components (notably libgtk-3-dev but there will be
others as well).<br clear="all">
