[wxhaskell-devel] Building wxcore on Ubuntu 10.04

[Dave T. <dav...@gm...>]

Hi all,

I am having trouble compiling wxcore on Ubuntu 10.04.
The source I am using I pulled with a "darcs get" from hackage, I then
descended into the wxcore directory and did a "cabal configure".

It gives me a "* Missing C libraries: wx_baseu-2.8, wx_baseu_net-2.8,
wx_baseu_xml-2.8..." error,
I have the .so files for "libwx_baseu-2.8.so" in my /usr/lib, but I don't
have any headers in /usr/include, could this be a problem?
If so then does anyone know where I can obtain these headers? I have already
installed the libwxbase2.8-dev and libwxgtk2.8-dev packages.

Running "cabal configure -v3" I can see the first problem is this:
"/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lwxmsw28ud_media"
Is it safe to assume that "msw" refers to MS Windows? If so should I be
trying to link against this when building in Linux?

I have pasted the full output from "cabal configure -v3" here:

Thanks,
