problem installing GLFW-0.4.2 with cabal on mac 10.6

[Sönke Hahn]

Hi!

I don't own a Mac and I am currently not using GLFW, but here's my two
cents:

It seems to me that you haven't actually identified the relevant error
message. "ExitFailure 1" is just Haskell-jargon for a sub-process
terminating with error code 1. So cabal-install called something that
returned that error code. That called process should have written an
error message (to stderr, probably). The relevant error message might be
somewhere hidden in the output you omitted. You could re-run "cabal
install GLFW" and try to spot the actual error message. And play around
with the -v option.

HTH,
Sönke
