I have a library which isn't on Hackage that I would like to use as a build
dependency in another project. In Rubygems you can provide a git repository
in the absence of an actual Rubygems repository.
Does Cabal support something like that? I would like to specify that a
particular build depend can be fetched from a given git repository rather
than from Hackage and have Cabal fetch it when installing the build
dependencies.
I'm guessing that it's not possible because I don't see a mention of this
feature anywhere. If it's not possible, how do people typically handle this
problem? Git submodules?

Use a git submodule (or place the source code to the package anywhere on
your file system) then use `cabal sandbox add-source <path>`. Provided
of course that you're using cabal sandboxes.

What is commonly done if you aren't using sandboxes? I would rather not use
them in an effort to make installing this project easier on my users,
because the current Haskell Platform doesn't have sandboxes yet.

Sandboxes are for development. If you really want to make it easy for
your users, publish your other package to Hackage. If that's not an
option, perhaps require them to install the other package manually
first? Maybe provide a script which fetches sources and cabal installs.

Hi,
I'm having troubles to set-up haskell-mode in gnu-emacs. I'm new to
emacs,...
Instructions says: via package manager add: M-x package-install <RET>
haskell-mode <RET>
I can open package manager, but where should I paste the command?
Thanks,
m.

That's not really pasteable as such.
M-x refers to pressing Meta-x (for a terminal this may not be available
without special configuration) or Esc followed by x. <RET> is the Return
key.
So: press Esc, x (minibuffer shows "M-x "), type "package-install", press
Return, type "haskell-mode", press Return. (If you have configured Terminal
to use Option for Meta --- this is not default as it disables
internationalization --- then you can press Option-x instead of Esc
followed by x.)

Thanks,
now I'm getting "Install package: haskell-mode[No match]". I'm doing this
via gnu-emacs in OSX
Do I need to download the package and place it somewhere?
Thanks,
m.
