Hi out there,

I tried to install the simple haskell scientific library today, I
checked with my package manager to make sure all of the dependencies
were met, the first line under installation was to enter the command I
entered below, but I got a wierd message.


jon@debian:~/Desktop/Haskell/ExtraLibraries/hmatrix-0.2.0.0$
runhaskell Setup.lhs configure --prefix=$HOME --user
Setup.lhs: hmatrix.cabal:18: 'Executable' stanza starting with field
'cabal-version'
jon@debian:~/Desktop/Haskell/ExtraLibraries/hmatrix-0.2.0.0$


Does anyone know a way around this or another way to install extra
libraries? I tried looking into cabal but couldn't find a guide on
how to install it.

Actually, what could also be very helpful, maybe moreso in the long
run is if someone could help me learn or explain how to call functions
from an outside source, say maxima, octave, or even maple I have.

Thanks,
Jon
