#551: cabal-install config file lacking ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: guest | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: high | Milestone: cabal-install-0.6 Component: cabal-install tool | Version: 1.6.0.1 Severity: normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: unknown Ghcversion: | Platform: Mac OS ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Comment (by duncan): At some point in that process you must have created a `~/.cabal/config` file (but one that does not specify any servers). When the file is missing completely then indeed `cabal update` will create a `~/.cabal/config` containing all defaults. Try this: {{{ $ rm ~/.cabal/config $ cabal update }}} -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/551#comment:2 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
