So i'm trying to install the llvm-3.4.2.2 haskell bindings through cabal. But it fails with the following output
Curtiss-MacBook-Air:TestImages Curtis$ sudo cabal install llvm-general

Does anyone know why this application won't properly install? Thanks for you any help you can provide.
Brok is a web crawling program to check if files contain any broken links, I utilize it to check markdown pages. Its written in haskel and provides documentation for instalation in both cabal and stack.

I followed the instructions here http://www.euterpea.com for installing Euterpea (a domain-specific language for computer music applications embedded in Haskell), and I received a message that certain packages and things failed to install (see the code below). How can I install the remaining packages?

I have included all the code, lest some particular relevant detail was omitted.
Edit
I have also tried to install Euterpea via stack. I get this message:
Mo-MacBook-Pro:~ Mo$ stack install Euterpea
Error: While constructing the build plan, the following exceptions were
encountered:
In the dependencies for Euterpea-2.0.6:
PortMidi must match ==0.1.6.1, but the stack configuration has no specified version (latest matching version is 0.1.6.1)
arrows must match >=0.4 && <0.5, but the stack configuration has no specified version (latest matching version is 0.4.4.2)
needed since Euterpea is a build target.
Some different approaches to resolving this:
* Consider trying 'stack solver', which uses the cabal-install solver to attempt to find some working build configuration. This can be convenient when dealing with many complicated constraint
errors, but results may be unpredictable.
* Recommended action: try adding the following to your extra-deps in /Users/Mo/.stack/global-project/stack.yaml:
- PortMidi-0.1.6.1
- arrows-0.4.4.2
Plan construction failed.

It has been suggested below that multiple packages are botched and that I should try re-installing all of them (in a single command, i.e. cabal install random tf-random QuickCheck Euterpea --force-reinstalls.
However, if I write cabal install random tf-random QuickCheck Euterpea --force-reinstalls I receive the following code:

What can I do to install Euterpea?
Installing the Euterpea package
This answer uses LTS 12.26 as I've verified it works, but this should work for most LTS releases (see bottom of step 2 for details).
Make a new Stack project:
stack new euter-test
cd euter-test
Edit stack.yaml and set the LTS to 12.26 and extra-deps to specify the versions of packages that aren't present in the LTS but are present on Hackage:
resolver: lts-12.26
...
extra-deps:
- Euterpea-2.0.6
- PortMidi-0.1.6.1
- arrows-0.4.4.2
- Stream-0.4.7.2
- lazysmallcheck-0.6
The errors you were getting on the Stack install ("PortMidi must match ==0.1.6.1, but the stack configuration has no specified version") indicate that a package you're using requires a particular version of a library, but the package repository (LTS snapshot) doesn't contain that library, so you need to specify it explicitly. Stack then prints which library and version is missing, so you can just keep trying stack build and adding the libraries until the build succeeds.
We use LTS 12.26 here, but by adding the extra-deps packages as described above, you should be able to get it working on any LTS.
Edit package.yaml and add Euterpea to the list of dependencies:

...

import Euterpea

Running the executable produced by the project should emit a tone if you're running a MIDI synthesiser:
stack exec euter-test-exe
Troubleshooting
If you get an error like *** Exception: No MIDI outputs!, then you're not running a MIDI synthesiser (see below). Make sure you run it in the background (eg. in another terminal).
If you don't get an error but there's no audio output, try running devices in GHCI to see what outputs are available, and then use playDev x instead of play, where x is the OutputDeviceID of the synth input port. Eg:
> devices
Input devices:
InputDeviceID 1 Midi Through Port-0
Output devices:
OutputDeviceID 0 Midi Through Port-0
OutputDeviceID 2 Synth input port (25952:0)
> playDev 2 $ c 4 qn
If you run devices and don't see any synth input ports, but you have fluidsynth running in the background, then you might need to restart ghci and try again.
Running a MIDI synthesiser
Here's a quick step-by-step to get Fluidsynth running on Debian (with guesses at a Mac setup along the way).
Install fluidsynth:
On Debian this is sudo apt install fluidsynth, on mac it could be brew install fluidsynth - there's quite a few articles on how to do this, just google it if in doubt.
Run fluidsynth:
On Debian using ALSA this is
fluidsynth -s -a alsa -m alsa_seq /usr/share/sounds/sf2/FluidR3_GM.sf2
Instructing fluidsynth to run in server mode, use alsa as the audio driver and alsa_seq as the MIDI driver, and use the soundfont FluidR3_GM.sf2 (should be installed as part of the fluidsynth install).
On Mac, it seems like the correct commandline is:
fluidsynth -s -a coreaudio -m coremidi /usr/share/sounds/sf2/FluidR3_GM.sf2
If you can't find the FluidR3_GM.sf2 file then it's likely it's been installed in a different location. As a last resort, you can just download a soundfont file and use that rather than the one provided by FluidSynth.
After running this, you should be given a prompt and maybe a few warnings, and fluidsynth will be running. Make sure it's running before using Euterpea, and keep it running while using Euterpea.
I've had nothing but trouble using cabal, not sure if it's due to a lack of understanding, or a faulty mental model, but things have been tough.
At the moment I'm just trying to get ghc-mod to work for my vim plugins. It usually works for a day or two and then starts failing for seemingly no reason with an error, the error I receive seems to change from time to time, right now I'm getting this one:
$ ghc-mod check Main.hs
ghc-mod: /Users/chris/.stack/snapshots/x86_64-osx/lts-6.15/7.10.3/pkgdb/package.cache:
GHC.PackageDb.readPackageDb: inappropriate type (Not a valid Unicode code point!)
Any ideas about how to fix this sort of thing? I've tried installing it again, but I get this (I think my cabal packages are all screwed up but don't know how to fix it):
$ cabal install ghc-mod

Edit:
Looked away for a second and tried again, now I'm getting this error, getting kinda sick of cabal changing its mind all the time:

This error was caused by having a mismatch between my local stack ghc version and the global ghc-mod ghc version, I updated the ghc version in the stack project to latest and everything is working fine.
I'm trying to install the regex-dfa package. I installed other regex packages like regex-tdfa, and they worked fine.
However, when I run sudo cabal install regex-dfa I get an error message:

What can I do about this?
The package is very old, the last (and the only) upload was in 2007. Don't use it if you can. Or contact the maintainer and ask him to update the package.
To fix this particular issue, you can cabal unpack regex-dfa, remove the -Werror and then cabal install it. But I'm not sure you will get another build error after that.

I encountered the same problem.
I don't know if the cause is the same, but try
set LANG=C
before you run cabal. In my case, that fixed the problem.
