Hello there,
I try to install hIDE by cabal, but I got some problems.
First of all, it seems that I need a newer version of cabal than what is
shipped with ghc 6.4.1. According to the README of Cabal, 1.1.3 I
unregistered the older cabal first. But then I get lots of warnings the
like:
> Distribution/Simple.hs:432:25:
> Warning: This binding for `pkg_descr' shadows an existing binding
> In the definition of `mockPP'
>
Is this okay? Or should I have uninstalled something else (and how)?
Trying to use the new cabal to install hIDE, "runhaskell Setup.lhs
configure" runs without error, but then:
> runhaskell Setup.lhs build
> Preprocessing executables for hIDE-0.1.0...
> Building hIDE-0.1.0...
> ghc-6.4.1: ghc-6.4.1: panic! (the `impossible' happened, GHC version
6.4.1):
> unknown exception

I guess, something went wrong, didn't it?...
Greetings
