vacuum-cairo

[Dan Colish]

Hi,
A friend told me about vacuum-cairo last night and I wanted to give it a
shot, but cabal keeps freaking out about not having gtk or cairo installed.
I'm very sure I do, since I've written other programs that use them. Is
there a special command for cabal to inform it that I do infact have these
libraries?

$ ghc-pkg list gtk
/usr/lib/ghc-6.10.4/./package.conf:
gtk-0.10.1

$ ghc-pkg list svgcairo
/usr/lib/ghc-6.10.4/./package.conf:
svgcairo-0.10.1

Well I found out how to make it work shortly after sending my email.
Those two packages are my in cabal from what I can tell ( I did update
before searching ). Instead I need the gtk2hs package from the arch
linux repo. That solved the issue. Would be nice if that stuff was in
cabal.
