My workaround was to create a link:
ln -s ~/Library/Haskell/repo-cache ~/.cabal/packages
Cheers,

Hello,

cabal-dev is a wrapper around cabal. It creates the directory
"cabal-dev" in your current directory when you run commands.

Yes, I know. But when I typed "cabal-devel install" on a package
directory, nothing happened.

Can you give a specific example? Surely *something* happened :)

I guess this happens with Haskell Platform for MacOS only. In this
environment, .cabal/config specifies as follows:

remote-repo-cache: /Users/<user>/Library/Haskell/repo-cache

But cabal-dev refers to /Users/<user>/.cabal/packages. After
"cabal-dev update" to create it, everything becomes fine to me.

Thank you.
