#221: need a way to specify site-specific include and library search paths ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: guest | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.2.3.0 Severity: normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: easy (<4 hours) Ghcversion: 6.8.2 | Platform: Linux ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Comment (by guest): Replying to [comment:2 duncan]:
After that, we'd want to extend cabal-install to keep a per-package store of this information and pass it when configuring packages. More generally it'd be a store of per-package preferences in addition to the current cabal-install config file which is global preferences. That enhancement is filed as ticket #223.
Would it be better if cabal itself read the per-package local preferences file, rather than the higher level cabal-install tool? That way I could still get the benefits of recording local, per-package file locations when I used cabal directly.
