[Haskell-beginners] latest Haskell Platform build fails

[emacstheviking]

I guess it shouldn't but since they (the sandboxes) became more "common
place" I have yet to find a reason to try them.

>From what I see on blogs and lists though I don't think it does really cure
the problems per se. IIUIC the most common cause of troubles is when
dependencies between packages cause issues and that can happen even in a
sandbox.

Perhaps I will try again sometime soon but I am knee deep in Prolog these
days, and PHP :(
