+MateVM is i686 only, at the moment.
+
 == DEPENDENCIES ==
+=== GHC ===
+install GHC via your distro manager. make sure you install
+it with shared libaries.
+on ubuntu 12.04 LTS it is:
+	$ sudo apt-get install ghc-dynamic
+
+for an "easy" installation of the remaining packages, you can use
+the script "./tools/installhaskellenv.sh".
+note, that it deletes your ~/.cabal and ~/.ghc directory first.
+
+
 === HARPY ===
-	$ cabal install harpy
+	$ cabal install harpy --enable-shared
+
+if this fails (e.g. you use ghc >= 7.0) then try our patched version:
+	$ git clone git://wien.tomnetworks.com/harpy.git
+	$ cd harpy
+	$ cabal configure --enable-shared
+	$ cabal build
+	$ cabal install --enable-shared
+
 
 === HS-JAVA ===
 for `hs-java' a patched build is needed:
 	$ git clone git://wien.tomnetworks.com/hs-java.git
 	$ cd hs-java
 	$ git checkout -t origin/v0.2
-	$ cabal configure; cabal build; cabal install
+	$ cabal configure --enable-shared
+	$ cabal build
+	$ cabal install --enable-shared
 hint: for some unknown reason yet, it seems building from source will be easier
 if you first install `hs-java' via cabal (like `harpy' above)
 
-=== CONTROL-MONAD-FAILURE ===
-we had some issues with building this package (it's a dependency of `hs-java').
-If you also encounter problems like this:
-> [3 of 4] Compiling Control.Monad.Exception.Base ( Control/Monad/Exception/Base.hs, dist/build/Control/Monad/Exception/Base.o )
->
-> Control/Monad/Exception/Base.hs:117:60:
->     Not in scope: type constructor or class `WrapFailure'
->
-> Control/Monad/Exception/Base.hs:118:2:
->     `wrapFailure' is not a (visible) method of class `WrapFailure'
-
-then try
-	$ cabal install cabal-install
-	$ export PATH=~/.cabal/bin:$PATH
-after that, try again your previous step (e.g. `cabal install hs-java')
 
+=== MISC ===
+	$ cabal install missingh --enable-shared
+	$ cabal install heap --enable-shared
+	$ cabal install plugins --enable-shared
 
 
 == NOTE ==
 unfortunately, many haskell libaries arn't tested very well, so building
 libraries from hackage can be a very painful trip.
