I would like to start with Haskell and I am at [this page](http://www.haskell.org/platform/linux.html), the page clearly says

> 
> Get and install GHC 7.6.3 prior to building the platform
>

but if you click the [link to GHC 7.6.3](http://www.haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_7_6_3) ( the published version at this point in time )

What should I do ?
I'm interested in using Haskell in conjunction with C++11, so I'm particularly interested in building the interpreter and the essential libraries from the source and what is the best way to use Haskell in general, if Haskell provides more than 1 version of the interpreter and what are all the possible solutions, this informations do not help me in finding a way.

I'm under Ubuntu 13.10 amd64 and I would like to know what is the best way to start with Haskell .
