'ghc-pkg.exe: cannot find package plugins' during 'perl Makefile.PL'
Syed Uzair Aqeel
I've just downloaded GHC (v6.4.1) and co'd the Pugs trunk (rev. 9055). When
I run 'perl Makefile.PL', I get the following:
bash-3.00$ perl Makefile.PL
** Note that Cygwin support for pugs still depends on the .msi
version of GHC and does not provide POSIX features absent
from an MSYS build. If you wish to fix this please refer to:

I've tried this both from within Cygwin and just from Visual Studio; both
fail as above. Have I missed some pre-build step?
Many thanks,

Does Makefile.PL die right there, or does it go on and write a Makefile?
If the latter, you should be able to just continue "make; make install".
