[Haskell-cafe] cabal install glade

[Jean Lopes]

Hello, I am trying to install the Glade package from hackage, and I
keep getting exit failure...

Hope someone can help me solve it!

What I did:
$ mkdir ~/haskell/project
$ cd ~/haskell/project
$ cabal sandbox init
$ cabal update
$ cabal install alex
$ cabal install happy
$ cabal install gtk2hs-buildtools
$ cabal install gtk #successful until here
$ cabal install glade

The last statement gave me the following error:

Important: You can assume I don't know much. I'm rather new to Haskell/cabal
