Enable xmobar's DateZone Plugin

[oneself]

Hi,

I just got the latest version of xmobar 0.17-1.  I believe that this version should support zmobar's DateZone plugin.  However, I'm not sure how to enable this.

Has anyone been able to get this to work?

Thank you

hey I will take a look at home. Never tested the DateZone plugin before. Have you looked at github? https://github.com/jaor/xmobar/blob/master/src/Plugins/DateZone.hs
there the author of the plugin suggests the way of using it

Also i looked into the cabal file. Have you enabled all plugin extension? If not, there is a flag with_datezone. You should try compile xmobar with this flag.

Hope it helps.

Thank you for your help.

I was hoping to avoid having to recompile xmobar myself.  Is there any way to get this to work via apt-get-fu?
