On: Static Site Generators

When I was reviewing existing static site generators I couldn't make Hakyll install - but this was back under Squeeze (Debian).

Did you try and install the package "haskell-platform"?

That's probably the easiest way to get Haskell up and running. Then it's a simple matter of using cable to install other libraries, including Hakyll.

My memory is hazy, so I cannot say for sure. The fact that I didn't document that as a requirement suggests that either I didn't know it was, or that I did, but it didn't help.

Either way I will revisit this now there is a new Debian stable, and I can install the package natively without using cabal.
