Yes. With cabal-install-0.5.2 and later: $ cabal install foobar --reinstall --enable-library-profiling If you always want profiling libs you can set that preference in the ~/.cabal/config file. Of course if cabal-install were really clever it'd know that packages were installed without the profiling libs and be able to install just those profiling versions. http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/282 Duncan (who should really write a cabal-install user guide)
