Installing Package Candidates With Cabal ...

Hi all, Is there a way to 'cabal install' a package candidate? The description at https://hackage.haskell.org/upload says it "let others install it before publishing it to the main index" which seems to indicate it can. Am I missing something? Thanks! -deech

You can install with a URL instead of a package name, like this: cabal install http://hackage.haskell.org/package/clock-0.4.1.3/clock-0.4.1.3.tar.gz (HTTPS is not supported) Regards, Henk-Jan van Tuyl -- Folding@home What if you could share your unused computer power to help find a cure?
