I'm trying to install Haskell and Yesod for Mac following this guide. Everything goes fine until the last step, when I receive this error message. I've tried to manually install the hfsevebts-0.1.4 but it gives me the same error.
gcc-4.8: error: language objective-c not recognized
gcc-4.8: error: language objective-c not recognized
cabal: Error: some packages failed to install:
fsnotify-0.0.11 depends on hfsevents-0.1.4 which failed to install.
hfsevents-0.1.4 failed during the building phase. The exception was:
ExitFailure 1
yesod-bin-1.2.3.4 depends on hfsevents-0.1.4 which failed to install.
How shall I proceed in order to install Yesod?
I think this fixed it for me:
$ brew uninstall gcc48
$ brew install gcc48 --enable-all-languages
Presumably the default gcc48 doesn't include Objective-C.
I ran into that same error—among many others—trying to install yesod on 10.8.5. I had some luck uninstalling the package from Haskell and installing Haskell via Homebrew. I did upgrade to 10.9 and everything still works (but I had to re-install Xcode command line tools)
I documented installing yesod on os x on my site if you need details.

I am trying to install wx by cabal install wx
Configuring wxc to build against wxWidgets 3.0
setup: Missing dependency on a foreign library:
* Missing C library: wx_gtk2u_webview-3.0
This problem can usually be solved by installing the system package that
provides this library (you may need the "-dev" version). If the library is
already installed but in a non-standard location then you can use the flags
--extra-include-dirs= and --extra-lib-dirs= to specify where it is.
cabal: Error: some packages failed to install :
wx-0.92.0.0 depends on wxc-0.92.0.0 which failed to install.
wxc-0.92.0.0 failed during the configure step. The exception was:
ExitFailure 1
wxcore-0.92.0.0 depends on wxc-0.92.0.0 which failed to install.
but I have following files in /usr/lib :
/usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_webview-3.0.so
/usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_webview-3.0.so.0
/usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_webview-3.0.so.0.2.0
I have also tried cabal install --extra-lib-dirs=/usr/lib/ wx but to no avail.
I have also tried all the suggestions in cabal install wx Missing C library
I am on archlinux and I have both wxgtk-3.0 and wxgtk-2.8 multilib and normal versions. I also tried reinstalling them.
I just ran into the same problem on Arch; when I tried running cabal with --verbose=3, it looked like libwx_gtk2u_webview-3.0 was present, but it was complaining about libwebkitgtk-1.0 being missing. After I installed the webkitgtk2 package, which provides libwebkitgtk-1.0, wxHaskell installed with no problems.
Try "sudo apt-get install libwxgtk-webview3.0-dev". It worked for me.
I'm trying to install Yesod on my Mac (running Mavericks), but installation fails because of an error installing Persistent. Specifically, cabal install persistent yields:
Failed to install persistent-1.3.0.2
Updating documentation index /Users/Max/Library/Haskell/doc/index.html
cabal: Error: some packages failed to install:
persistent-1.3.0.2 failed during the building phase. The exception was:
ExitFailure 11
(The full output is available as a gist)
I don't think this is an issue with conflicts, because I ran rm -rf ~/.ghc ~/.cabal before trying this (though I think 3 globally installed packages might not have been erased—unsure).
I'm using the latest Haskell Platform with the ghc-clang-wrapper script.
Cabal versions:
$ cabal --version
cabal-install version 1.16.0.2
using version 1.16.0 of the Cabal library
GHC version:
$ ghc --version
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 7.6.3
Reinstalling Haskell platform allowed me to install Persistent, but the real issue was that I needed to install gcc48. Installing this cleared everything up. https://stackoverflow.com/a/21285413/1176156
hi i'm trying to install, (without having to update or install the latest compiler),reactive-banana-wx and one of the requirement's are failing
cabal install reactive-banana-wx
and heres the error
Configuring wxc-0.90.0.4...
setup: failed
cabal: Error: some packages failed to install:
reactive-banana-wx-0.6.0.1 depends on wxc-0.90.0.4 which failed to install.

wxc-0.90.0.4 failed during the configure step. The exception was:
ExitFailure 1
wxcore-0.90.0.3 depends on wxc-0.90.0.4 which failed to install
when i try to cabal install wxcore ,wx or wxc they all say failed and point towards wxc being required.
here's the error
cabal install wxc

here's my compiler info if it would be useful
ghc -v
Glasgow Haskell Compiler, Version 7.0.4, for Haskell 98, stage 2 booted by GHC version 7.0.4
I've got the same error trying to install phooey with ghc 7.4.1 on Debian tonight. The reason is a bug in the package wxc-0.90.0.4 and it should affect all wxHaskell-based packages. You can fix it, there is no need to downgrade your wxc package...
The easiest way to reproduce it is to do
cabal install wxc
or
cabal install glade
It might be a good idea to make sure that all prerequisites are in place, before you do it. wxc depends on a number of cabal and Linux packages and all of them should be installed and compiled... I did it in the most stupid way possible, just by running
cabal install wxc
and reading error messages which it spills out. This sweetie usually tells you what it wants... For instance, if it complains about cabal package x, just do cabal install x. If it complains about Linux package y, then use your Linux package manager and install the development version of this package, which is called normally lib<y>-dev in Debian. So, for instance, if
cabal install wxc
gives you an error saying that package gtk+2.0 is missing, you want to do
apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev
The same story with cairo, glade2 and other GTK-related libraries
When you are green with all prerequisites, you want to install wxWidgets-2.9, which is currently in the Development stage... so, it doesn't have any binaries for Linux and you should build it yourself. Download the source code from wxWidgets website and build it. It is pretty easy to do, just:
untar/unzip the source code to your favorite directory
run ./config
run ./make
If you are on wxc-0.90.0.4, at this moment you should encounter our little bug... To keep the long story short, it is in the file eljpen.cpp, which you can find in
~/.cabal/packages/hackage.haskell.org/wxc/0.90.0.4/wxc-0.90.0.4.tar.gz
Open the archive, go to the line 159 in the file and replace *_ref = NULL; with _ref = NULL or anything else what makes more sense. Then recreate the archive in the same place with the fixed eljpen.cpp file in it.
run ./make
It should work now.
run sudo make install (normally, you should have root privileges to insatll wxWidgets library...).
after it is done try to do
cabal install wx
again. It should be working now. I guess, after that you can enjoy your reactive-banana-wx, wxHaskell, phooey, etc.
PS http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=3576397&group_id=73133&atid=536845. Why didn't I find it earlier? :/
I'v solved this problem on Lubuntu 12.10 so:
sudo cabal info wx
Synopsis: wxHaskell
Versions available: 0.11.1.2, 0.12.1.4, 0.12.1.5, 0.12.1.6, 0.13.2,
0.13.2.1, 0.13.2.3, 0.90, 0.90.0.1 (and 11 others)
I picked out different versions of wxHaskell, but only 0.13.2.3 was right.
sudo cabal install wx-0.13.2.3
...and everything has compiled and installed. Then I could install:
sudo cabal install reactive-banana-wx -fbuildExamples
That's no depends on the version of your Glasgow Haskell Compiler or the sort of your Linux.
Would love to try the Yi editor, but unfortunately, it keeps failing during the installation.
First I get:
> cabal install yi
haskell-src-exts-1.13.0 failed during the configure step. The exception was:
ExitFailure 1
yi-0.6.5.0 depends on haskell-src-exts-1.13.0 which failed to install.
then when I try to install haskell-src-exts I am stumped by this:
setup: The program happy version >=1.17 is required but it could not be found.
cabal: Error: some packages failed to install:
haskell-src-exts-1.13.0 failed during the configure step. The exception was:
ExitFailure 1
installing happy cabal install happy (version 1.18.9 at that) does not help, as it still produces the error above!
I am trying to get this going on ArchLinux. Also, Windows installation didn't work either.
Any ideas?
cabal installs programs to ~/.cabal/bin (on Unix; no idea about Windows) if they are not already installed, and does not warn you to add it to your $PATH; it also (unless you have the latest unreleased version, built from its repo) does not know that it has done so, because it only tracks libraries, not executables. You will need to manually add $HOME/.cabal/bin to your $PATH so that it will be found
(edit be pedantic)
On ubuntu I installed happy using apt-get instead of through cabal, which worked.
Here is what I have done to install Yi with GTK+ under ArchLinux.
First, I tried cabal install yi and I got the same error as you.
To solve this error, I installed happy using this command:
yaourt -S happy
Then, I got another error because the alex package was needed. So, I installed it with:
yaourt -S alex
After that, I got some errors because of gtk2hs packages missing. I installed them with:
yaourt -S haskell-cairo haskell-glib haskell-gtk haskell-pango
Finally, I was able to install Yi with:
cabal install yi -fvty -fpango
I had the same issue in installing hprotoc which has a dependency on haskell-src-exts. The issue I believe was that I was running the sudo command which was modifying the path. When I took the recommended action in the following Q&A, it resolved the issue of finding happy.
sudo changes PATH - why?
Leksah uses Yi as a component, try installing leksah instead. I had similar error messages at one point, the haskell-src-exts error is due to running out of memory. Reboot your computer, have nothing else running except the console, and try again.
I'm trying to use the latest release of EclipseFP. Upon start, the scion-browser setup initializes, with everything going well until trying to install scion-browser-0.1. I get the following error in my Eclipse console:
...
Loading package double-conversion-0.2.0.1 ... linking ... ghc: /home/dpm/.cabal/lib/double-conversion-0.2.0.1/ghc-7.0.3/HSdouble-conversion-0.2.0.1.o: unknown symbol `_ZNK17double_conversion6Double5valueEv'
ghc: unable to load package `double-conversion-0.2.0.1'
cabal: Error: some packages failed to install:
scion-browser-0.1 failed during the building phase. The exception was:
ExitFailure 1
Apparently, ghc-pkg seems to think everything is OK with this package (ghc-pkg check prints nothing). Reinstalling double-conversion through cabal also changes nothing. Anybody any idea what's going on? I'm on Ubuntu 9.10 Linux, GHC 7.0.3 from the Haskell-Platform.
As indicated here :
close your eclipse and run this in your terminal:
cabal install blaze-textual --user -fnative --reinstall
cabal install aeson --user --reinstall
then, restart your eclipse.
