[Fedora-haskell-list] Using cabal2spec 0.21

[Shakthi Kannan]

Hi,

For ghc-chalmers-lava2000 package, I had to enable rawhide to use
cabal2spec 0.21. When using:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=546376

  $ rpmbuild -bc ghc-chalmers-lava2000.spec

I get the following error:

=== ERROR ===

I have the following installed:

$ rpm -qa | grep ghc
ghc-glib-devel-0.10.1-5.fc12.i686
ghc-gconf-devel-0.10.1-5.fc12.i686

ghc-cairo-devel-0.10.1-5.fc12.i686
ghc-glade-devel-0.10.1-5.fc12.i686

If I try to install the latest ghc, I get the following message:

   You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem

What is required to do a successful build? Appreciate any inputs,

Thanks!

SK
