Re: [wxhaskell-users] [Announce] wxHaskell 0.90

[Conal E. <co...@co...>]

I'm excited to see progress in ghci-friendliness! I installed
wxWidgets-devel-2.9.3 via macports and then wxHaskell, and I get the
following when trying to run a simple wxHaskell program in ghci:

Loading package wxc-0.90.0.2 ... can't load framework: QuickTime

Any suggestions? I'm using Mac OS 10.6.8 and GHC-7.0.4 from the Haskell
Platform.
