That's cabal's very odd way to tell you that you don't have a base >= 4.2 installed (and it can't get you a new version of base, since that's really baked into the compiler). > > This means that this version of wx requires GHC 6.12 (since > base-4.2.0.0 comes with 6.12.1). Yes. And it requires Cabal >= 1.8, since the Cabal API changed. However, the only changes to the previous versions were edits in the cabal files and one Setup.hs, so cabal install wx-0.12.1.2 wxcore-0.12.1.2 wxdirect-0.12.1.1 has good chances to work on 6.10.* > A version of the platform based > around 6.12.1 should be coming out next month (apparently). _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
