I don't have any "cabal-install" package in my PPA; I do however have a "cabal-install-3.0" package (i.e. the 3.0 is part of the version number, because I supply one package per major version of cabal). So I'd expect you'd find something like ii cabal-install-3.0 3.0+git20190317.1.b3d6d0b-6~16.04 amd64 Command-line interface for Cabal and Hackage if you executed `dpkg -l | grep cabal-install`... (i.e. the "version" is that monstrous "3.0+git20190317.1.b3d6d0b-6~16.04" thing) > > > In the meantime you can just keep using your current cabal 3.0 exe; does > `cabal --version` currently have any noticeable startup latency for you on > WSL? > > > No, no noticeable startup latency. > Interesting. I'll investigate... maybe I'll be able to discontinue the WSL ppa at last... :-) >
