I found that this messages is because of glib.cabal files bug at glib-0.13.2.2, so when I try to install glib separately, I edit glib.cabal (remove -D___attribute__(A)= option on cpp) and install clearly.
However, when I try to install it using stack, stack install gtk command always takes Hackage one instead of installed glib package.
For short, therefore, my question is, how can I using separately installed glib? Or, is there any way to modify packages .cabal file while installing it, using options or whatever?
Stack lets you use a dependency from a local directory, or a github repo. So feel free to fork the project, do the fixes, maybe even do a PR, and then put this into your stack.yaml under "packages" section:

I' reading stack document from https://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/GUIDE/
In the section of Different databases, it says that
Databases in stack are layered. For example, the database listing we just gave is called a local database. That is layered on top of a snapshot database, which contains the libraries and executables specified in the snapshot itself. Finally, GHC itself ships with a number of libraries and executables, which forms the global database. To get a quick idea of this, we can look at the output of the stack exec -- ghc-pkg list command in our helloworld project:

I did the same experiment on windows, but the results are different:
Create a new project by stack new helloworld
Edit helloworld/src/Lib.hs as following
module Lib
( someFunc
) where
import Acme.Missiles
someFunc :: IO ()
someFunc = launchMissiles
Edit helloworld/package.yaml as following
dependencies:
- base >= 4.7 && < 5
- text
- filepath
- containers
- acme-missiles
Since acme-missiles be not in LTS, so I add a extra-deps: in helloworld/stack.yaml
extra-deps:
- acme-missiles-0.3 # not in the LTS
stack build and success, log as following

You can see that my outputs are different from the document.
The question is:
Why acme-missiles-0.3 is in C:/sr/snapshots/ rather than /helloworld/.stack-work? (Note that, in windows, C:/sr/ be equivalent to ~/.stack)
Also, in the FAQ of the document from https://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/faq/, it mentioned that
Where is stack installed and will it interfere with ghc (etc) I already have installed?
Stack itself is installed in normal system locations based on the mechanism you used (see the Install and upgrade page). Stack installs the Stackage libraries in ~/.stack and any project libraries or extra dependencies in a .stack-work directory within each project's directory. None of this should affect any existing Haskell tools at all.
acme-missiles-0.3 is extra dependencies, why in my experiment, it is in ~/.stack rather than .stack-work directory within project's directory?
Thanks.
I tried to install several packages as following:
stack install apply-refact hlint stylish-haskell hasktags hoogle

How can Haskell be compiled to Javascript using GHCJS and Haskell Stack?
I have the current version of Haksell Stack 1.5.1.
I can initialize a GHCJS project with this command: stack new ghcjsSetup ghcjs
Once in the project directory I try following the Stack documentation for GHCJS.
I create a stack.yaml file and edit it to match the example from the documentation so that is looks like this.
resolver: lts-7.19

Following the documentation further I try to install and boot GHCJS with this command:

This command produces an output which ends with an error.

You are missing the libtinfo library which is part of ncurses. Depending on your environment try something like:
sudo apt-get install libtinfo-dev
As an aside, getting all the pieces that ghcjs needs to build successfully is tricky and not well documented as of September 2018. One might hope that as the project matures it will get easier to install, and that a binary package will be produced. Know that you are not the only person who has these issues. It takes some patience and trial-and-error to get ghcjs working right now.
Others have had success using nix, I did not.
Building project dependent on glib fails on lts-7.8 and later after Cabal becomes 1.24.1.0.
Steps to reproduce
Add glib to a project's .cabal file
build-depends: base
, gtktest
, glib
Run following commands
stack install gtk2hs-buildtools
stack build
Result
The following error occurred

I thought that Cabal-1.24.0.0 in the ghc-8.0.1 global package was causing problems, and succeeded building it after installing Cabal-1.24.1.0 in ghc 's global package.
However, this method is difficult for beginners and I do not think the right solution. How is the correct way to solve it?

Version 1.2.0, Git revision 123819b7d65df2ad7fe63fb5eb39a98536acb5f3 (4055 commits) x86_64 hpack-0.14.0
is there a GUI package that is still up-to-date?
I tried installing both wxHaskell and gtk2hs today and both fail on dependencies I just cannot solve (wxHaskell cannot find some wxWidget libs and while trying the glade tutorial gtk2hs fails on a missing pkg-config libglade2-0 I installed too).
I guess it's just some problem with me not understanding the linux/cabal/package install things good enough but is there a up-to-date tutorial how to get started (install) some GUI lib for Haskell somewhere around?
Here are the errors:

This is really frustrating me - maybe someone can help me here - thank you!
I am running 12.04 and everything works fine for me.
Are you sure you have libglade2-dev installed ? That should fix it.
Coming from ArchLinux i had the same problem at first when i didn't know there were separate dev libraries, i don't remember having to do this in arch.
