Hi Everyone,

I am trying to get cabal-install to work on a system in which /tmp is mounted noexec. Is there any way to configure it to use another directory?

cabal-install gets its temporary directory via System.Directory.getTemporaryDirectory, so you can specify some other directory via the TMPDIR environment variable (TMP on windows).

I would be happy to patch the source and rebuild if need be.

Or that.

Thanks in advance,

Chris
