[Haskell-cafe] Can't install vector-0.10.9.1 on OS X Maverick

Sat Nov 2 23:14:51 UTC 2013

Ok, for the lost souls which will find this thread, I've solved the problem
in two steps:

a) Used the script here:
http://justtesting.org/post/64947952690/the-glasgow-haskell-compiler-ghc-on-os-x-10-9

b) Specifically for the snap problem, I've solved it following the FAQ
here:
http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/GHC/FAQ#I_get_an_error_message_from_GHCi_about_a_.22duplicate_definition_for_symbol_module_registered.22

The command was:
cabal install snap --ld-options="-x"

HTH,
A.
