[Haskell-cafe] Package regex-posix-0.94.2 suddenly failed to link

[Arnaud Bailly]

Hello,
All of a sudden, the package regex-posix-0.94.2 failed to link after i
installed a couple of other packages (http, json). When I try to
reinstall it, I got the folowing errors:

D:\projets\crete1941>cabal install --global --reinstall

cabal: Error: some packages failed to install:
regex-posix-0.94.2 failed during the building phase. The exception was:
ExitFailure 1

I am really clueless about the failure and what caused it.
Thanks for your help,
