Having Trouble Building

I'm having trouble building this package which I presume is a prerequisite for building my application.

My .cabal file:

name:                nativeCodeTree

executable nativeCodeTree
  main-is:             Main.hs
  -- other-modules:       
  other-extensions:    ForeignFunctionInterface, ImplicitParams, OverloadedStrings, PatternSynonyms, ScopedTypeVariables
  build-depends:       base >=4.9 && <4.10, bytestring >=0.10 && <0.11, bgfx
  hs-source-dirs:      src

  default-language:    Haskell2010

I have the haskell-game/bgfx repo added a git submodule and located in a folder called bgfx at root of my project (next to my .cabal file).

I could not get my project to build with bgfx listed as a dep. so I thought I had to first build the bgfx code. Is that not how this works?

When I tried to build the haskell/bgfx code it said it couldn't find the pkg-config gl package. Any idea how I can get past that?

I'm probably misunderstanding something fundamental so I'd appreciate some guidance.

Okay I've past that point for now.
I've stumbled my way through runhaskell Setup.hs configure --user but now runhaskell Setup.hs build is giving me this problem: bkaradzic/bgfx#215

How can I use makefiles as instructed when cabal is actually building it for me?

Did you get anywhere with this @Rybadour? If you're still struggling, can you provide any steps to reproduce the problem? I'm afraid it's an OSX problem, I might not be able to provide much help.

Rybadour commented

No sorry I haven't spend anymore time on this.

Ok, if you don't mind I'm going to close this issue. If you happen to come back to bgfx (or I start working on this project again!) please feel free to re-open! Sorry it didn't work out for you.
