I can't seem to find it documented anywhere as to the default directories that cabal puts its information in (its certainly not in ~/.cabal ), as I'm finding that even when I try to do a "reinstall" of the haskell platform, cabal thinks that all the libraries i removed are still there. how can i fix this?
Cabal uses the ghc-pkg "database" to know which libraries are installed. If you want to wipe everything and start afresh, then delete the ~/.ghc directory (assuming you did per-user installs). -- Ivan Lazar Miljenovic Ivan.Miljenovic@gmail.com IvanMiljenovic.wordpress.com
