I'm very comfortable using cabal's `v2-` nix-style local builds at home and at work, but on a personal machine at home I've clung to `v1-install` because I _really_ like the ability to choose which packages are available in a simple `ghci` session.
For a long time that's been impossible or painful with the `v2-` commands. What's the status these days? I'm particularly interested in how it works for packages that only exist locally without a Hackage server.
Does
cabal new-install --lib
do what you want?
I don't know; in the past it hasn't, and I wanted to see what the current recommendations are before going down a long and potentially incorrect path. Cheers, Tom
