[wxhaskell-users] Problems compiling wxhaskell 0.6

[Gonzalo T. <gon...@so...>]

Hi. Can anybody help me?

I'm trying to install wxHaskell 0.6, but when I type make I get the
following:

~/Sources/wxHaskell/wxhaskell-0.6>make

It looks to me like some type errors. How do I fix them? I tried with
wxhaskell 0.5 and I got the same result.


If it helps, the compiler version is
~/Sources/wxHaskell/wxhaskell-0.6>c++ --version
c++ (GCC) 3.3 20030226 (prerelease) (SuSE Linux)

Thanks in advance,
