Hi!

I want to remove eveything which cabal has installed, and begin again with a clean installation. How is this accomplished? I've deleted ~/.cabal, but it still says that hsshellscript is already installed:

desktop ~ $ cabal install hsshellscript Resolving dependencies... All the requested packages are already installed: hsshellscript-3.4.3 Use --reinstall if you want to reinstall anyway.

Bye V.W.

Packages registered with ghc are placed in the .ghc directory. You can delete the directory entirely or selectively unregister using ghc-pkg.
