I have downloaded the latest Haskell Platform(8.0.1 version) for Windows 7, wxWidgets-3.0.2, set all the needed environment variables. I have successfully installed "wxdirect" using "cabal install", but when I try to install "wxc" it fails. Install logs:
C:\wxWidgets-3.0.2\lib\gcc_dll\mswud\..: getDirectoryContents: does not exist
(The system cannot find the path specified.)
cabal: Leaving directory '.'
Where do I need to get that "gcc_dll\mswud\" folder?
P.S Neither Abriline nor Achelanne works for me for some reason.
P.P.S I tried to install this library following Haskell-wiki instructions, but it didn't work complaining about a ton of dependencies.
UPDATE
I tried installing the wxHaskell using Haskell Platform 2014.2.0.0 with Abriline installer. It stopped on building wxc. Logs:
Building wxc
setup.exe: Maybe.fromJust: Nothing
1] Compiling Main ( wxc-0.92.2.0\dist\setup\setup.hs, wxc-0.92.2.0\dist\setup\Main.o )
Linking .\wxc-0.92.2.0\dist\setup\setup.exe ...
The bitness is correct
Configuring wxc-0.92.2.0...
Configuring wxc to build against wxWidgets 3.0.2
cabal: Leaving directory '.\wxc-0.92.2.0'
UPDATE
Extended logs with "cabal install wxc -v3":
http://rgho.st/7BJcHzJTF
From the log it seems that maybe pkg-config is missing. From the platform's built in msys2 run pacman -S pkg-config and install it, see if it works after that.
I've installed it as follows.
Download wxInstall-Achelanne-64-0.1.zip, unzip, and set this folder as the current directory in a terminal
Type
Set WXWIN=%CD%\wxWidgets
Set WXCFG=gcc_dll\mswu
Set PATH=%CD%;%PATH%
cabal unpack wxdirect
cabal install ./wxdirect-xxx
(where xxx is e.g. 0.92.3).
Find the file wxdirect.exe and put it in the current directory.
Rename the file wxWdigets/include/wx/setup_redirect.h to wxWdigets/include/wx/setup.h
Type
cabal unpack wxc
cabal install ./wxc-xxx
Find the file wxc.dll and put it in the DLLs folder.
Put the folders DLLs and wxWidgets\lib\gcc_dll in your search path.
Now you can install wxcore and wx.

I am having a similar issue to this problem.
I want to download Meson for Windows and used the following command:
pip3 install meson
This installs in my site-packages folder, specifically c:\users\user\appdata\local\packages\pythonsoftwarefoundation.python.3.8_qbz5n2kfra8p0\localcache\local-packages\python38\site-packages\mesonbuild
However, running meson or python3 meson.py results in an error:
'meson' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable
program or batch file.
When looking at the mesonbuild directory within site-packages, I seem to be missing the meson or meson.py file. Has anybody ever come across this issue before?
After opening up Visual Studio, and looking at the installed Python packages in my environment, I noticed this interesting information window above the list of my Python packages:
Due to new security restrictions, installing from the internet may not
work on this version of Python.
After seeing this, I decided to install Meson through the website's MSI installer. Indeed, after trying to download the installer, Windows threw up all kinds of security warnings and "are you sure you want to do this" notifications before I convinced Windows that I really did want to install Meson.
I just wanted to share this with anybody that might have the same issues. The MSI installer worked for my needs.
Try the following :
python3 -m mesonbuild.mesonmain build
Meson pip package contains meson and mesonbuild modules. The meson module serves as Python entry point, which, during an initial execution of setup.py, associates mesonbuild.mesonmain:main with command line name 'meson'. (Explain Python entry points?). To invoke meson via python3 use python3 -m mesonbuild.mesonmain build, which writes build config into 'build' directory (provided that there is meson.build file in the current directory.) There is no such file 'meson.py' in mesonbuild module and meson module does not contain any Python code.
I am trying to install guile locally on a system. It requires gnu/libtool. While installing all its dependencies, the "make check" command showed errors while installing gnu/libtool. But if I omitted the command and simply ran "make" followed by "make install", then it was able to install successfully. I was able to install the rest of the dependencies without any problem. However, when I run the following command, then I am getting the below mentioned error:
Command:
../configure --with-libltdl-prefix=$PREFIX/libtool --with-libgmp-prefix=$PREFIX/gmp --with-libunistring-prefix=$PREFIX/libunistring --with-libiconv-prefix=$PREFIX/libiconv --with-libreadline-prefix=$PREFIX/libreadline --with-libintl-prefix=$PREFIX/gettext --prefix=$PREFIX/guile
Error:
configure: error: GNU libltdl (Libtool) not found, see README.
the $PREFIX is defined and I have installed the libltdl library in the libtool folder. When I look through the include and lib sub directories of the libtool folder, I can find the libltdl folders and .so files.
So, I am unsure as to why the configure script is not able to find the locally installed version of libtool. I will be highly grateful if someone can point out the problem in the command and how to remedy this error.
I had a similar issue when trying to compile bind9 using distcc under Rasbian. I had previously installed the package libtool but I was also missing the package libtool-bin.
That solved my issue.
Try
apt list libtool* --installed
and see if both show up.
I'm using Haskell Platform 7.10.2-a (64-bit) on Windows:
>cabal -V
cabal-install version 1.22.6.0
using version 1.22.4.0 of the Cabal library
My proxy requires (basic HTTP) authentication:
>set http_proxy=http://user:passwd#acme.com:port
It seems to work for cabal update:
> cabal update
Downloading the latest package list from hackage.haskell.org
Skipping download: Local and remote files match.
However, when I try to install any package, it fails:
> cabal get ghc-mod
Warning: The package list for 'hackage.haskell.org' does not exist. Run 'cabal
update' to download it.
cabal: There is no package named 'ghc-mod'.
>cabal install shelltestrunner
Warning: The package list for 'hackage.haskell.org' does not exist. Run 'cabal
update' to download it.
cabal: There is no package named 'shelltestrunner'.
You may need to run 'cabal update' to get the latest list of available
packages.
How can I get get or install to actually use the proxy? Or is there some other problem preventing installation of packages from hackage?
I may have found the cause, when using cabal -v update, it displays path like
\\ACME.NET\UserData\username\RF\AppData\Roaming\cabal\packages\hackage.haskell.org\00-index.tar.gz
while other uses of cabal use path like C:\Users\username\AppData\.., but without the RF folder in the displayed path. Must be my company network server config. Anyway, I updated paths like remote-repo-cache to use another folder in cabal/config and it works better now.
I have installed the Haskell-platform on Windows. I am trying to build an existing project from an existing cabal sandbox. Whenever I attempt to reinstall, all packages fail with the following error:

You could try using the solution described here. It's basically about removing/replacing powershells default dir alias. But that's for sure not the most powershell-compatible way of fixing it.
I am trying to include ZMQ sockets in a Go app but both zmq4 and gozmq (the referred ZMQ binding libraries for Go) are giving me problems. I would like to understand why zmq4 specifically isn't importable on my system.
I am running a Windows 8 system and I used the windows installer from the ZMQ website for version 4.0.3. I am primarily concerned about getting zmq4 set up and here is the result of my "go get" query on the github library's location:
> go get github.com/pebbe/zmq4
# github.com/pebbe/zmq4
polling.go:4:17: fatal error: zmq.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
This issue is not alleviated by cloning the Github repository - the error remains the same.
I know the issue has to do with the C library zmq.h that is located in the "include" folder of my ZMQ installation, but whether the dependency is held up by a pathing issue or an external tool issue is a mystery to me.
A similar error has come up in regards to node.js and is the solution I see others referred to, outside of node scripting, but it was unsuccessful in my case.
I've so far included the path to the "include" folder in my PATH environment variable and previously placed zmq.h inside of the zmq4 top-level folder. I don't have much of an arsenal otherwise to understand this problem because I am new to C and C-importing packages in Go
I wanted to do the same thing, but on Windows 7, and here is what I had to do.
Since the Go bindings are using cgo to integrate with zeromq, you need zeromq built with gcc. There are no pre-built binaries, so you'll have to build them yourself, with mingw or similar, but this process is easier than it may sound, and nicely described on the zeromq site.
As #photoionized pointed out, C_INCLUDE_PATH and LIBRARY_PATH need to be set when building the Go bindings.
(In my case, I ran into a problem when compiling libzmq with IN6_ADDR not being defined. The only solution I found was, inspired by this issue, to manually add the line #include <in6addr.h> to the windows.hpp file.)
The Windows installer version of ZeroMQ won't work with zmq4, you need to compile from source with gcc, I recommend using MSYS2.
Install and update MSYS2 following the instructions from
http://sourceforge.net/p/msys2/wiki/MSYS2%20installation/
Start the mingw32_shell.bat or mingw64_shell.bat based on Go arch (32bit or 64bit)
pacman -S mingw-w64-(x86_64|i686)-toolchain make (x86_64 for 64bit, i686 for 32bit)
cd into zeromq src folder (C:\ path starts with /c/ inside the shell)
./configure
make
make install
CGO_CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include CGO_LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib go get github.com/pebbe/zmq4
Copy the following dlls and put them next to your go program (.exe):
/usr/local/bin/libzmq.dll
/mingw(32|64)/bin/libgcc*.dll
/mingw(32|64)/bin/libwinpthread*.dll
/mingw(32|64)/bin/libstdc++*.dll
Here's updated steps for #user2172816's MSYS2 solution:
Install and update MSYS2 following the instructions from http://sourceforge.net/p/msys2/wiki/MSYS2%20installation/
Start the mingw32_shell.bat or mingw64_shell.bat based on Go arch (32bit or 64bit)
pacman -S mingw-w64-(x86_64|i686)-toolchain make (x86_64 for 64bit, i686 for 32bit)
Add C:\msys64\mingw64\bin to your Path (pkg-config is there)
Restart the msys2 shell to get the new Path
Download and unzip libsodium source: https://github.com/jedisct1/libsodium/releases
cd into libsodium folder (C:\ path starts with /c/ inside the shell)
./configure --build=(x86_64|i686)-w64-mingw32
make
make install
Add /usr/local/lib to PKG_CONFIG_PATH (export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig)
cd into zeromq src folder
./configure --build=(x86_64|i686)-w64-mingw32
Add
#ifdef ZMQ_HAVE_MINGW32
#include <winsock2.h>
#include <windows.h>
#include "netioapi.h"
#endif
To the top of src/tcpaddress.cpp
make

Copy the following dlls and put them next to your go program (.exe):
/usr/local/bin/libzmq.dll
/mingw(32|64)/bin/libgcc*.dll
/mingw(32|64)/bin/libwinpthread-*.dll
/mingw(32|64)/bin/libstdc++*.dll

An updated answer using MSYS2.
Install MSYS2 MSYS2 installation guide.
Make sure to choose the correct installation 32bit or 64bit.
Open the appropriate shell MSYS2 MinGW 64-bit or MSYS2 MinGW 32-bit. All further steps assume you are using this shell.
Update packages following instructions at the installation guide.
Install libtool pacman -Sy libtool.
Download zmq source code to a location of your choice.
Navigate to the zmq source folder.
To generate the configure file, run the autogen tool by running ./autogen.sh.
In the probable case that step 8 fails:
Find the file at fault (probably version.sh).
Replace line endings by (replace file by the actual filename).
cp file file.bak
tr -d '\r' <file.bak> file
If this fails you'll have to dive in the code and find the problem.
Run the configure tool ./configure.
In the probable case of failure. Comment out empty else clauses in the configure file.
Add Go to Path: PATH=${PATH}:<go bin directory>.
