I know some of you will say use the debian packages. Well I did that, but when I tried to install snap, which is not included in the debian packages, I wound up with conflicting dependencies, and could not find a way out. I hope this dialog is helpful to whomever is in charge of the haskell platform, a wonderful resource by the way.
I’m not trying to talk you out of building everything on your own, which is something where you learn a lot. Nevertheless I’m curious which kind of problems you had when trying to use the Debian packages, and if they are specific to the Debian packages? My experience with ghc and lots of package from Debian, cabal-install from Debian and then "cabal install"’ing (as a user!) everything not in Debian is pretty good so far.
