PS: How does one go about downgrading Cabal and cabal-install? If we wanted to check whether cabal is the problem, how?

You can force the Cabal lib version to use (in case you have multiple versions installed) with 'install --cabal-lib-version'. To downgrade cabal-install itself to some older version you need to compile and install that version.

About cabal-install, I'm mostly concerned about not breaking my whole existing system by installing an old version. Are there any steps I can take to retain sane setup? I don't have an OSX machine and I can't exactly ask people volunteering to break their Haskell environments. Are there any catches to having multiple Cabal libs installed or will the latest one always be used if not specified? -- Mateusz K.
