[Hackage] #695: cabal install world always reinstalls programs
#695: cabal install world always reinstalls programs ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: duncan | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: cabal-install tool | Version: Severity: normal | Keywords: Difficulty: easy (<4 hours) | Ghcversion: Platform: | ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ cabal-install does not currently track the installed state of programs. It does now list them in the world file however. This leads to it always wanting to reinstall programs. Probably we do want to keep the programs in the world file, since we hopefully will track programs better in future. The temporary hack would be to filter out packages that have no lib when retrieving packages from the world file. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/695 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects

No packages to be installed. All the requested packages are already installed. If you want to reinstall anyway then use the --reinstall flag. }}} Does it satify this ticket's request? -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/695#comment:2 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
