#464: install needs a --package-conf=FILE flag ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: guest | Owner: Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.2.3.0 Severity: normal | Resolution: worksforme Keywords: | Difficulty: normal Ghcversion: 6.8.3 | Platform: ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Changes (by duncan): * status: new => closed * resolution: => worksforme Comment: The `--package-db=` flag does appear to work, closing. Before the Cabal-1.6.0.2 release I did two independent builds of everything on Hackage (well, at least everything that can consistently be installed simultaneously) using isolated prefixes and package dbs. It even works doing both builds simultaneously (after fixing how temp dirs are selected and where log files go). -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/464#comment:2 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
