I got: {{{ $ cabal install glib Resolving dependencies... /var/folders/9I/9Ic7OfDBGVmrCPM+NiQOAWp80Kc/-Tmp-/glib-0.11.092062/glib-0.11.0/Gtk2HsSetup.hs:25:0: warning: #warning Setup.hs is guessing the version of Cabal.

See ghc ticket http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/4134 This applies to the paths in the .cabal file. For ones specified on the command line perhaps just making them absolute would be ok. Ones specified in the global config must be absolute. Ones in local config could possibly be relative. -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/702> Hackage <http://haskell.org/cabal/> Hackage: Cabal and related projects
