[wxhaskell-users] Installation on Mac OS X

[Wouter S. <ws...@Cs...>]

Dear all,

I've been trying to install wxhaskell on my iBook, so far to no  
avail. I'm running 10.4 with Wolfgang Thaller's ghc version 6.4.1 and  
XCode 2.1. So far I have managed to build managed to build and  
install wxMac 2.6.2 (which oddly enough seems to correspond to  
wxwidgets 2.5.3).

Wxhaskell configures as follows:

configuration:
library:     wxhaskell-0.9.4  (release 0)
compiler:    ghc-6.4.1
wxwidgets:   mac-2.5.3
with openGL: no
library dir: /usr/local/wxhaskell/lib

But building gives me the error attached at the bottom of this message.

I tried the binaries provided, but alas:

 > ghc -package wx HelloWorld.hs -o hello

HelloWorld.hs:4:0:
     Failed to load interface for `Graphics.UI.WX':
         Bad interface file: /usr/local/wxhaskell/lib/imports/ 
Graphics/UI/WX.hi
             mismatched interface file versions: expected 6041, found  
6040


Any clues as to what's amiss would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

--Wouter
