Re: [Haskell-cafe] cabal-install problem with alex dependency in bytestring-lexing

One trivial solution is to assume ~/.cabal/bin is on the PATH and to ignore system-wide packages, which I think is even *more* sub-optimal (why install a new version of alex when it's already available?).

The tool should only install alex in ~/.cabal/bin if alex is not already available. Erik -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Erik de Castro Lopo http://www.mega-nerd.com/
