Hi,
I want to use a few libraries from hackage and have already download and built them. Can I install those libraries somewhere in my home dir (I want to avoid installing as root) so that ghc can find them?
If so, which options should I give to Setup.hs (with main=defaultMain) so that the libraries are going to be copy to that dir?
$ cabal instsll xmonad Does exactly that by default. No other flags are required. By default it stores files under $HOME/.cabal and registers the packages in ghc's per-user db. So no special permissions are required. If you want to change the defaults then you can use command line flags or edit the $HOME/.cabal/config file. Duncan
