Re: [Haskell-cafe] Cabal error installing Yesod and nehe-tuts on Haskell Platform 2012.2.0.0

Apparently package archives are retained by cabal. Try deleting ~/.cabal/packages/hackage.haskell.org/zlib-conduit-0.4.0.2.tar.gz and try again. Regards Alexander Foremny 2012/7/3 Eric Macaulay :

I tried running cabal install again, but just got the same error.

Hello Eric,

most packages fail to install because zlib-conduit fails to install. The reason for this -- as can be seen in the last line -- is that the tar archive from which the source is extracted is corrupted. Simply run cabal install to try again. I suspect the source archives are re-downloaded, but maybe someone can correct me if I'm wrong.

Do you have any idea why those tar archives are corrupted? Maybe an unstable internet connection or even hardware fault?
