The problem of installing a haskell platform

Question

I am trying to install Haskell (for the first time). Following the instructions on the website, I downloaded:

• ghc-6.10.4-i386-unknown-linux-n.tar.bz2
• Haskell platforms 2009.2.0.2.tar.gz

I unpacked the ghc package and installed it without any problems. Then I unzip the haskell platform and run the following:

./configure --prefix=/usr
make
su
make install

I get this error:

**************************************************
* Building each component completed successfully.
*
* Now do "sudo make install"
**************************************************
milanb@slicky:~/install/haskell-platform-2009.2.0.2$ su
root@slicky:/home/milanb/install/haskell-platform-2009.2.0.2# make install
scripts/install.sh
Installing mtl-1.1.0.2...

Error:
The mtl-1.1.0.2/Setup script does not exist or cannot be run
make: *** [install] Error 2

What to do next?

Answer 1

This is the most relevant link: http://trac.haskell.org/haskell-platform/ticket/84

Answer 2

I'm not sure what the reason is, but I think it's better to report on the Haskell Platform mailing list and tracker:

• http://trac.haskell.org/haskell-platform/report/1

Answer 3

, " Haskell " .

these 2 links apply only to my blog. I think these links will be useful to you.
