I am new to Haskell, and am trying to install a package (scan) using cabal-install. I want it to install all files under the directory ${HOME}/nonvc, like in ~/nonvc/share and ~/nonvc/bin. So I specified
install-dirs user -- prefix: /home/raghu/nonvc
In Haskell, -- is the start of a single-line comment (like // in Java), and cabal-install has taken that for its configuration file (rather than # like in most config files). So remove the -- from the front of the line to get it working. -- Ivan Lazar Miljenovic Ivan.Miljenovic@gmail.com IvanMiljenovic.wordpress.com
