It worked at least for my installing Haskore. > Anyway, yes, the real answer is, download the Haskell Platform, > which comes with cabal-install already! I have some concerns that I might loose things I already have painfully installed (e.g. "text-icu") in the process of using the Haskell Platform. I'm also worried about something similar happening would I upgrade my GHC (I'm currently using 6.10.1, but 6.10.3 is available). That's why I was asking for some description on Cabal, though the needed info probably pertains more to GHC per se...
