#423: add option to fetch a single package without dependencies ---------------------+------------------------------------------------------ Reporter: guest | Type: enhancement Status: new | Priority: normal Milestone: | Component: cabal-install tool Version: HEAD | Severity: minor Keywords: | Difficulty: easy (<4 hours) Ghcversion: 6.10.1 | Platform: ---------------------+------------------------------------------------------ Comment(by duncan): {{{ Fri May 28 01:35:08 BST 2010 Duncan Coutts <duncan(a)haskell.org> * Add cabal fetch --no-deps and --dry-run flags Allows fetching one or more packages but without fetching their dependencies and thus not requiring that a consistent install plan can be found. On the other hand --no-deps means that there is no guarantee that the fetched packages can actually be installed. }}} Leaving this open for the moment since it would be nice to add a message to tell people when normal `cabal fetch` fails that they can avoid the deps, or use `cabal unpack` etc. -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/423#comment:4> Hackage <http://haskell.org/cabal/> Hackage: Cabal and related projects
