If you're using a subprocess, then you're always using the same, the installed cabal-install version. With a cabal-install library, your application might use an other version of cabal-install than the installed cabal-install binary and this might result into issues. Also if it seems counterintuitive, the best solution might be to have a library that usese a subprocess ;).
