Summary: ghc-6.4.1: ghc-6.4.1: panic

Initial Comment:
While trying to build hIDE with the latest code  
pulled on 23rd of Sept. 2005,  I get the following:

Here is the snippet from 'darcs changes, so you  
can discern the state of the hIDE repo  
(http://www.scannedinavian.org/repos/hIDE):

--human-readable 
Fri Sep 23 00:30:07 CEST 2005  Duncan Coutts 
<duncan.coutts@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> 
  * More GUI tweaks and demo editor 
improvements 
 
Thu Sep 22 17:06:16 CEST 2005  Duncan Coutts 
<duncan.coutts@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> 
  * Fix up yiBase so it still works 
  Fro the moment the yi widget gets it's own top 
level window, just until it is 
  adapted to use the new ide shell interface 
 
Thu Sep 22 16:51:22 CEST 2005  Duncan Coutts 
<duncan.coutts@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> 
  * More build.sh portability fixes 
 
Thu Sep 22 16:48:40 CEST 2005  Duncan Coutts 
<duncan.coutts@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> 
  * Do not build with -threaded, use the gtk2hs 
thread hack. 
 
Thu Sep 22 16:46:31 CEST 2005  Duncan Coutts 
<duncan.coutts@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> 
  * Add wadges of new GUI stuff 
  This now has the file browser and a demo text 
editor using the model/view 
  split. You can open multiple top level windows 
(View->New Window) and edit the 
  same buffer from multiple windows.

The yi repo is at:

My system is:

Any additional info required? 
 
Sincerely,

The error message is supposed to be something like
"ghc-6.4.1: unknown package: <something>", rather than the
panic that you got.  I've now fixed that problem.

In any case, GHC can't find one of the packages you need,
for some reason.  The diagnostics aren't great at the moment
(i've just improved that too).
