[Haskell-beginners] cabal install reactive-banana-wx

[Stephen Tetley]

Try installing either installing wxDirect 0.12.1.4; or wxDirect
012.1.3 with the build option "splitBase" first.

There's a difference in the cabal files between 0.12.1.3 and 0.12.1.4
where the file defaults to container Base 3.0 and Containers 0.3
(wxDirect 0.12.1.3) or Base 4.0 and Containers 0.4 (wxDirect
0.12.1.4).

Latest GHC versions have Base 4.0 and Containers 0.4, wxDirect
0.12.1.4 should work by default for latest GHC versions. wxDirect
0.12.1.3 needs building with the "splitBase" flag passed to work with
latest GHCs.
