I've found that I had to make several modifications to the bootstrap.sh and cabal-install.cabal files in order to get this to work. I am wondering how the maintainers of the Haskell-platform, etc are dealing with these issues.
I usually get a recent cabal-install from the Cabal Darcs repository, which normally builds without modifications to bootstrap.sh on a recent GHC: darcs get http://darcs.haskell.org/cabal/ Or if you want a particular branch (such as 1.14): darcs get http://darcs.haskell.org/cabal-branches/cabal-1.14/ Of course, you need Darcs to do this, but binary builds of Darcs are provided on the Darcs website. -- Daniël
