Hello Cafe,
I have a local forked package and added its path to sandboxed project with 'cabal sandbox add-source PATH'.
However, to build that package I have to specify a flag to 'cabal install'. In other words I can't install it by 'cabal install --only-dependencies', but separately with 'cabal install PACKAGE -fFLAG'.
I believe you can use constraints to resolve this. eg: $ cabal install --only-dep --constraint="snap-server +openssl" to install snap-server (a dependency) with the openssl flag set. (Credit to Adam Foltzer for pointing this out to me yesterday, coincidentally.) --Rogan
Is there a way to tell cabal sandbox (or in project.cabal) to always use some flag(s) for compiling a (particular) package in local path?
GHC 7.8.2, Cabal 1.20.0
