Good question - this should really be documented somewhere...

The wxhaskell package is built against the wxGTK package from
Fedora Extras.  If you add say /etc/yum.repos.d/extras.repo
containing:


[extras]
name=Fedora Extras - $releasever - $basearch
baseurl=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/extras/$releasever/$basearch/
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/extras/RPM-GPG-KEY-Fedora-Extras


and try to "sudo yum install wxhaskell-ghc622" again you should be all set. :)

Cheers, Jens
