Re: [Haskell-beginners] Stack and packages not in the snapshot

Is there a way to configure stack to build packages from the snapshot only? Or does it already work this way, only trying "x509-util" because *I* said "stack build x509-util"?

Your last paragraph is correct: stack will never automatically pull in a package that's not explicitly added to your build plan (either via snapshot or extra-deps), but if you run `stack build foo`, it will listen to you and install it. The exact semantics of this are covered in:

Thanks for the clarification. -- Thomas Koster
