Hi all, these are the steps I followed to get Haskell installed in my machine[1]: https://gist.github.com/2389324 The installation completed successfully, and gave me these instructions: Now do "cabal update" to initialize the package list But when I do, I get this message: Note: there is a new version of cabal-install available. To upgrade, run: cabal install cabal-install Which I do, but after another "cabal update" I'm given the same message, meaning that cabal-install was not actually updated. Any ideas on why this is happening? Best, -- Héctor [1] Specs for my machine: $ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS Release: 10.04 Codename: lucid $ uname -a Linux 2.6.32-33-generic #70-Ubuntu SMP x86_64 GNU/Linux

The old one is in /usr/local/bin; the new one is in ~/.cabal/bin. You may not have the latter in your $PATH yet, and even if you do you would need to run "hash -r" to get the shell to notice the new addition. -- brandon s allbery allbery.b@gmail.com wandering unix systems administrator (available) (412) 475-9364 vm/sms
