[Haskell-cafe] Re: Haskell Platform install fails on mtl

[Lyle Kopnicky]

It's a bug in the install.sh script. Here's the fix:

> # Is this exact version of the package already installed?
> is_pkg_installed () {
>   PKG_VER=$1
>   grep " ${PKG_VER} " installed.packages > /dev/null 2>&1
> }
>

<   cd "${pkg}" || die "The directory for the component ${PKG} is missing"
<   echo "Installing ${pkg}..."
<   install_pkg ${pkg}
<   cd ..

>   if is_pkg_installed "${pkg}"; then
>     echo "Platform package ${pkg} is already installed. Skipping..."
>   else
>       cd "${pkg}" || die "The directory for the component ${PKG} is
missing"
>       echo "Installing ${pkg}..."
>       install_pkg ${pkg}
>       cd ..
>   fi
