Configuring network-2.2.1.7...
cabal: Error: some packages failed to install:
network-2.2.1.7 failed during the configure step. The exception was:
sh: runGenProcess: does not exist (No such file or directory)
Looks like it wants to run "sh" (i.e., the Borne Shell), which
obviously doesn't exist on Windows. Now I'm sure some kind soul
somewhere has probably compiled a Win32 binary for it, but I would
suggest that the build will just immediately trip over again because
some *other* Unix-only tool isn't available.
How to fix? Well, I'm guessing you'll be forced to install some kind
of Unix emulation layer such as Cygwin. I don't have any expertise of
such things...
You can also use MSYS/MinGW, I prefer this to Cygwin.
Best wishes,
Maciej
