Estoy usando una VM con la siguiente configuración:

Arch Linux (kernel 3.0-ARCH)GHC 7.0.3 cabal-install 0.10.2Cabal library 1.10.1.0

Cuando trato de construir zlib usando cabal ...

$ cabal install zlib

Obtengo el siguiente resultado:

cabal: Error: some packages failed to install:

¿Alguien puede arrojar algo de luz sobre este error de compilación?
