My toolchain is a little silly. ;) It doesn't have ncurses in the obvious place, so by the time my build gets around to doing libraries/terminfo, the terminfo configure bails because it can't find the curses headers. I can work around this, by building the library manually, but is there an easy way for me to get a hold of specific cabal options when calling specific packages during build? "inplace/bin/ghc-cabal" configure --with-ghc="/home/teeler/Downloads/ghc-7.0.2/inplace/bin/dummy-ghc" --with-ghc-pkg="/home/teeler/Downloads/ghc-7.0.2/inplace/bin/ghc-pkg" --with-gcc="/some/weird/bin/gcc" --configure-option=--with-cc="/some/weird/bin/gcc" --enable-library-for-ghci --configure-option=CFLAGS=" -fno-stack-protector " --configure-option=LDFLAGS=" " --configure-option=CPPFLAGS=" " -- dist-install libraries/terminfo I need to add some extra options to the configure command here.
