Hello Erik,

what's the easiest way to get cabal-install?
At the moment, the best way to get cabal-install installed on your system is to simply download it and build then install. Note that if you want to use it on the system level, I do not recommend you to use other FreeBSD Haskell ports than lang/ghc. Here is a short recipe: $ pkg_add -r wget $ fetch http://haskell.org/cabal/release/cabal-install-0.8.2/cabal-install-0.8.2.tar... $ tar -xzf cabal-install-0.8.2.tar.gz $ cd cabal-install-0.8.2 $ sh bootstrap.sh $ setenv PATH $PATH:$HOME/.cabal/bin Hope that helps, :g
