Re: Booting ghc with system-wide installed Cabal?

Installing stuff system-wide without doing ‘make install’ would break my expectations for how the build works. Also, how would one return to a pristine state if it was done that way?

Hmm, I was assuming it would be up to the user to ensure that a compatible Cabal is already registered in the user's package database. Regardless, as I said in my other message, it's not clear to me that this is something that we really want to introduce complexity to support. Cheers, - Ben
