Hi, As far as I can tell, cabal-install-ghc74 is not an official distribution, it's maintained by someone unrelated to the Cabal team (and hence possibly not on this mailing list). Furthermore, it says at the top of its description page "Don't complain if it does not work for you", so I imagine your time might be better spent talking more about why your first attempt failed :) For reference, the official cabal-install package is here: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/cabal-install and I'm using cabal-install-0.14.0 with ghc-7.4.1 fine here, although I admit I don't remember if I installed it with that version of ghc (I seem to have several nowadays). _______________________________________________ cabal-devel mailing list cabal-devel@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/cabal-devel
