[Haskell-cafe] install 7.8.4 64 bits on arch linux

[Kees Bleijenberg]

Lars,

This did it! pacman complained that it couldn't completely finish it's job.
But pacman removed packages like haskell-ghc-paths and haddock.  After that,
ghc installed without problems.
Thanks!

Kees

Odd. Before installing 'ghc', please try this:

$ sudo pacman -Rucs ghc haddock haskell-ghc-paths

'-Rucs' will recursively remove all existing dependencies. Please
double-check the list of packages pacman prints, because they will all be
removed.

Cheers
Lars
