[Haskell-cafe] Installing HOpenGL

[Thomas Schilling]

Yes, the OpenGL website seems unmaintained.  I presume the easiest  
way to set it all up is to use the installer from
   http://www.haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_661.html#windows

 From the size of it it seems to include all the extra packages.
