#795: cabal-install's bootstrap.sh should use fetch(1) on FreeBSD
---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
Reporter: larsv | Owner:
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone:
Component: cabal-install tool | Version: 1.8.0.6
Severity: minor | Keywords:
Difficulty: unknown | Ghcversion:
Platform: Other Unix |
---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
On a vanilla FreeBSD install, you do not have any of wget or curl
installed. The system however bundles the fetch(1) tool, which is
perfectly capable of retrieving files.
I suggest adding support for this tool in bootstrap.sh.
