According to the instructions, if I'm understanding this correctly, you're supposed to be able to unpack a package, and do
runhaskell Setup configure runhaskell Setup make runhaskell Setup install
I usually install as a user, and into my home directory, so the following just works for the 100-odd haskell packages from hackage i have installed currently:
runhaskell Setup configure --user --prefix=$HOME runhaskell Setup make runhaskell Setup install --user
If that doesn't work, please report it to the author, and the libraries list, possibly the cabal list. Drop by the IRC channel, we solve problems in real time :)
...there's a libraries list? (And a Cabal list??) Well, IRC sounds faster. Next time I actually have the nerve to install something with Cabal, I'll drop in. ;-) [Unless it actually works of course. In fact, no, I'll drop in anyway...]
