A reminder: When I wanted to upgrade to yi 0.4.6.2, I needed to download the new package list cabal update #download list of new packages cabal upgrade #make any upgrades Regards, CS 2008/9/26 Duncan Coutts <duncan.coutts@worc.ox.ac.uk>

The latest released cabal-install does what you want here.
$ cabal install cabal-install
Well, I might be spoiled by portage but shouldn't there be a thing like
cabal upgrade pureMD5
That also works in the latest version.
comparing,
$ cabal install foo $ cabal upgrade foo
both mean to get the latest 'foo'.
The difference between install and upgrade is whether the dependencies are also upgraded or not. In Gentoo they call this 'deep' upgrades.
and
cabal upgrade --all
We write that as just
$ cabal upgrade
