Re: [wxhaskell-devel] Build failure

[Atze D. <at...@uu...>]

Hi Melanie,

it seems that the problem lies with wxc. I (for now) have provided bin/mk-cabal to build locally, did you use that, what is the full build output, in particular w.r.t wxc? wxc build (e.g.) might fail because of an incorrect/incomplete install of wxWidgets. Is the correct (and not an old) wx-config used, mine by default is installed in /usr/local/bin/wx-config.
