I have found an {-# OPTION -fvia-C #-} deep inside the lambdabot code in Plugin/Pl/Common.hs. How can I tell cabal install to ignore this? Is there some command line option for doing so, or do I have to edit the source code and somehow persuade cabal to use my hacked version ?
The edited source code is ignored by cabal install. However, if you tar.gz the edited source code and replace the original tarball (making sure that you do *not* remove the untarred directory (it seems that you can remove its contents, but not the directory itself)), then cabal install works and lambdabot installs.
You cannot only run $ cabal install lambdabot but you can also switch to lambdabot source directory and call lambdabot$ cabal install
