Solved (Was: [Haskell-cafe] cannot build greencard)

[mf-hcafe-15c311f0c at etc-network.de]

Yes, it works:

$ greencard -V
greencard, version 3.00

(Daniel: You were right; I made the mistake of following the
instructions in the README :).  Now I've finally switched to Cabal,
and that did the trick.  Bulat: Yes, I am aware of all the other
projects, but greencard seems to be a front-end to FFI, and it looks
alive enough to me right now, right?)

(Btw the "report-bugs-to" e-mail doesn't work.)

(Btw2:

diff -r cabal-install-0.6.2/bootstrap.sh cabal-install-0.6.2-/bootstrap.sh
166c166
< dep_pkg "parsec" "2\."
---
> dep_pkg "parsec" "3\."

shouldn't be a problem, right?)


Thanks everybody,
Cheers,
Matthias
