I'm not sure what distro you are running but on Arch I am getting a SDL2 error.
I am running on Mint (w/ Cinnamon). What is the error message?
libSDL2_ttf-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directoryMint likely explains it. There was a compatibility thing that happened with arch a while ago... I'll dig in further.
Got it running. On arch you have to install haskell-sdl2-ttf & sdl2_image for it to work.
