[Haskell-cafe] Problem building HXT

[Neil Mitchell]

Hi

>  You got it right. The issue is that in TagSoup.hs there is a line like 'parseTagsOptions (options { foo =...}'. That's invalid syntax AFAIK;

It's just record syntax, which is very handy.

> more importantly, it's using functions from ndm's TagSoup library. TagSoup, with version 0.5, renamed the Options type to ParseOptions (we know the '(options {...' stuff is intended to be ParseOptions because parseTagsOptions handily comes with an explicit type signature).

I thought this might be version skew. The released TagSoup on Hackage
should still have options, not parseOptions - which is only in the
darcs version. If you install tagsoup from Hackage you should be fine.

Thanks
