I had the same problem on a Mac system, change "GHC" to "ghc" and things will work.<br>
<br>
I didn't even think that it was an actual bug! Ticket #379 reports the problem.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Oct 21, 2008 at 3:52 PM, Duncan Coutts <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:duncan.coutts@worc.ox.ac.uk">duncan.coutts@worc.ox.ac.uk</a>></span> wrote:<br>

</div>Can you save a copy of the file and attach it to a new ticket at:<br>
<a href="http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/" target="_blank">http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/</a><br>
<br>
I'll look into why it's not parsing the old format correctly.<br>
<br>
Once you've done that, you can delete the file and let it re-create a<br>
default one.<br>
