Re: [Haskell-cafe] Is it possible for cabal sandboxes to use $HOME/.cabal/lib?

Ok. Seems that I get this method working. Just copied .cabal-sandbox and caba.sandbox.config over new location. Replaced all occurrences of the old path to the new one in cabal.sandbox.config and .cabal-sandbox/x86_64-linux-ghc-7.8.4-packages.conf.d/*.conf. After that I executed `cabal sandbox hc-pkg recache` and everything seems to work. Doesn't seem like a sane solution, but can be used if absolutely needed.

Not sure, but is this possible to copy your home cabal sandbox to ./.cabal-sandbox? Then you'll have all your default packages available and won't build them again.

You'd need to fix paths in the package database and `cabal hc-pkg recache` (if that works; might need cabal exec).
