"cabal update" hangs. "ping haskell.org" times out. But haskell.org and hackage webpages are loading just fine. What's going on?
Lots of servers turn off ICMP packet responses these days so ping isn't as reliable as it once was for detecting when a server is running. I'm not sure why cabal update would hang. Jason
