#611: protect users from themselves when they use sudo inappropriately ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: duncan | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: Severity: normal | Keywords: Difficulty: unknown | Ghcversion: Platform: | ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Comment(by draconx): Maybe I don't understand how sudo works, but why is cabal installing in the user's home directory when running as root in the first place? It should be installing packages in root's home directory if you do this. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/611#comment:1 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
