I was trying to get IHaskell to build on Arch Linux(using the Hackage package). I couldn't get it to work with either the arch packages for ipython2 or for ipython3. The version that IHaskell tries to install also didn't work. Should I just wait for your latest release?
I recommend installing IPython 3 with pip, cloning the repository, and then running ./build.sh ihaskell. If that doesn't work, file an issue and I'll be happy to help figure out the installation woes. (Note that ihaskell install must be run for IPython to know about the kernel! Updating the documentation is the last bit before release... :) )
This is the whole reason why Juypter is being made. Everything in Juypter will be kernel agnostic. The only part of Juypter that will be first class Python is the IPython kernel.
Just released IHaskell 0.6, which supports and requires IPython 3.0 and higher! So you may now be able to use Hackage to install, and use with new IPython.
(That said if you have problems I still recommend the Github route; especially the bit about filing an issue with your problem!)
