I've been trying for a couple hours to install Helm, and I can't figure it out. I followed the instructions here : http://helm-engine.org/guide/installing/. The full output of which is at the bottom. I've come across a couple cases which seemed similar to my problem here and here, but the solutions didn't work. Is there any way to install Helm on OS X Yosemite?

If you have installed XQuartx, the required files (xcb-shm.pc, etc.) are in /opt/X11/lib/pkgconfig.
I was able to build cairo and pango by first setting:
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/X11/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig
Update:
I got compilation errors trying to build helm-0.6.0 against pango-0.13.0.3. Here's how I was finally able to get a successful build:
cabal get helm-0.6.0
cd helm-0.6.0
Edit helm.cabal and add glib to the first build-depends section
Make the following edits on the file src/FTP/Helm.hs:
line 222: change paFamily = textTypeface to paFamily = stringToGlib textTypeface
add the import: import System.Glib.UTFString (stringToGlib)
cabal configure
cabal install
In addition to what user5402 said, you will also need to manually install sdl2-1.2.0. The latest version (1.3.0) is not compatible with helm currently.

As I'm still running into this problem now, I've created a repository here with an attempt at a homebrew tap to solve this problem. It's not fully functional yet but I think it's close.
I have done the below steps to install cabal . I have already installed haskell platform using sudo apt-get install haskell-platform
http://coldwa.st/e/blog/2013-08-20-Cabal-sandbox.html
Building Cabal from git
Assuming you already have a previous version of cabal installed:
$ git clone git://github.com/haskell/cabal.git /path/to/cabal
$ cd /path/to/cabal
$ cabal install Cabal/ cabal-install/
However when I try to initialize a sandbox, it throws error as below.
vagrant#vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-32:/usr/lib/haskell-packages$ cabal sandbox --help
cabal: unrecognised command: sandbox (try --help)
Adding more details:
vagrant#vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-32:/usr/lib/haskell-packages$ cabal --version
cabal-install version 1.16.0.2
using version 1.16.0 of the Cabal library
vagrant#vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-32:/usr/lib/haskell-packages$ which cabal
/home/vagrant/.cabal/bin/cabal
vagrant#vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-32:/usr/lib/haskell-packages$ cabal --help
This program is the command line interface to the Haskell Cabal infrastructure.
See http://www.haskell.org/cabal/ for more information.
Usage: cabal COMMAND [FLAGS]
or: cabal [GLOBAL FLAGS]
Global flags:
-h --help Show this help text
-V --version Print version information
--numeric-version Print just the version number
Commands:
install Installs a list of packages.
update Updates list of known packages
list List packages matching a search string.
info Display detailed information about a particular package.
fetch Downloads packages for later installation.
unpack Unpacks packages for user inspection.
check Check the package for common mistakes
sdist Generate a source distribution file (.tar.gz).
upload Uploads source packages to Hackage
report Upload build reports to a remote server.
init Interactively create a .cabal file.
configure Prepare to build the package.
build Make this package ready for installation.
copy Copy the files into the install locations.
haddock Generate Haddock HTML documentation.
clean Clean up after a build.
hscolour Generate HsColour colourised code, in HTML format.
register Register this package with the compiler.
test Run the test suite, if any (configure with UserHooks).
bench Run the benchmark, if any (configure with UserHooks).
upgrade (command disabled, use install instead)
help Help about commands
For more information about a command use:
cabal COMMAND --help
To install Cabal packages from hackage use:
cabal install foo [--dry-run]
Occasionally you need to update the list of available packages:
cabal update
You can edit the cabal configuration file to set defaults:
/home/vagrant/.cabal/config
vagrant#vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-32:/usr/lib/haskell-packages$ cabal COMMAND --help
cabal: unrecognised command: COMMAND (try --help)
vagrant#vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-32:/usr/lib/haskell-packages$ cabal sandbox --help
cabal: unrecognised command: sandbox (try --help)
The Cabal installed by apt is a little older and this is likely the one in your PATH. It gets installed to /usr/bin. You can check with:
which cabal
And to see the version:
cabal -v
You should put the one in ~/.cabal/bin in your PATH first with:
export PATH="$HOME/.cabal/bin:$PATH
(Probably best to put this in your ~/.bash_profile or similar)
On my system:
.whogan:~$ which cabal
/home/whogan/.cabal/bin/cabal
.whogan:~$ cabal -V
cabal-install version 1.22.6.0
using version 1.22.4.0 of the Cabal library
.whogan:~$ /usr/bin/cabal -V
cabal-install version 1.16.0.2
using version 1.16.0 of the Cabal library
Edit: Tried with a new Vagrant box, ran apt-get install haskell-platform and install from git:

I was having this same problem on OSX Mavericks. To get Idris to compile, I used homebrew to install gmp, then I had to do 'export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/Cellar/libffi/3.0.13/lib/pkgconfig', and then 'cabal install idris -f-LLVM'. I got the tip to export the PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable from this site:
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/idris-lang/gxcdvRIA2OI/NqKSd4zHkI4J
Mavericks already had libffi installed, and I didn't want to install a second copy from source, which is what the PKG_CONFIG_PATH trick helped me avoid. Do 'brew info libffi' to find the correct path to export. Hopefully someone will create a homebrew formula for Idris soon...
The first error indicates you should install the LLVM development packages of your distribution (not through cabal) and the second indicates you should install the development package for the GCC libffi library. What Linux distribution are you using? Or are you on Windows/Mac?
