Description Ivan 2007-02-11 04:39:34 UTC
After emerging, app-emacs/haskell-mode-2.2, the message says to look at /usr/share/doc/haskell-mode-2.2/html/installation-guide.html, however this document does not exist (there is, however, an index.html file).

Fixed, thanks
Comment 2 Ivan 2007-02-12 09:52:02 UTC
I contacted the maintainer of haskell-mode about the installation guide issue and some others, and here's the relevant replies.  I don't know if you'll want to use the work-arounds or else to wait till upstream to fix it (I've reverted back to 2.1 for the time being).

It's called README.

Yes, a typo.  Replace the ":trype" to ":type" in haskell-indent.el.

Oh, I think I see what's going on.  Thanks for the bug-report.
In the mean time, just remove inf-haskell.elc (i.e. use the
non-byte-compiled code instead), it should work around this bug.

 Ok, I changed the installation hint to README and masked the current version.  I wait for a a newer upstream version.
