+1  Q: 

Libraries "rt" and "dl" in Cygwin

Perhaps this is stupid but I'm unable to find out which package I have to install in Cygwin to fix the following missing libraries:

config.status: creating unix.buildinfo
config.status: creating include/HsUnixConfig.h
cabal.exe: Missing dependencies on foreign libraries:
* Missing header file: HsUnix.h
* Missing C libraries: rt, dl

Any ideas or how do you generally find out which package to install when you get feedback that file xxx is missing (I remember that in gentoo this was quite straightforward)...

+1  A: 

Appreciate this thread is old but never hurts to try...

Did you ever get this working on cygwin? I've hit the exact same problem but didn't understand the advice given on the link from Artagnon.

Sadly I had no luck. I wanted to set up GitIt, but well -- in the end I installed it in a Linux VM :-)

Yeah - went down the same road myself. Quite nice to just use apt-get on debian rather than battling with the laudable cygwin.
