[Haskell-cafe] Re: gd on Win32

[Kevin Jardine]

Is there an easy way to install this module on Windows?

I just ran

cabal install gd

and got the rather intimidating response:

Missing C libraries: gd, png, z, jpeg, fontconfig, freetype, expat

I actually have some of these libraries installed (eg. expat) but not
most.

I'm using MinGW.

Cheers,
Kevin
