So I unpacked zlib-dev into my home dir, and pointed $LIBRARY_PATH to it, but I'm still getting the same error. Do I need to modify the .cabal file for every package that I'm trying to install, or is there some way of telling it globally where to find libraries on non-standard paths?
The library is not the problem. Cabal must find the include files. I think you can use the --extra-include-dirs option.
