[Pkg-haskell-maintainers] Bug#637940: leksah does not run out-of-the-box

[Ximin Luo]

Package: leksah
Version: 0.10.0.4-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

$ leksah
Using default Yi configuration
Now updating system metadata ...
leksah-server: the flag -N2 requires the program to be built with -threaded
leksah-server: 
leksah-server: Usage: <prog> <args> [+RTS <rtsopts> | -RTS <args>] ... --RTS <args>
leksah-server: 
[...]
leksah-server: 
leksah: internal IDE error: Can't connect to leksah-server

It works if you start leksah-server manually, but you can't expect users to know to do this:

$ leksah-server -r & leksah
[1] 23805
***server start
Using default Yi configuration
Bind 127.0.0.1:26411
Now updating system metadata ...
Now loading metadata ...

Finished
>>>Info Changed!!! True

Also leksah does not appear in the "Programming" desktop applications menu.
