I really wish that too.  As of this writing, Nix is truly the best option for
non-Haskellers to get Haskell-built code running on their machine.

I can't agree with that. Plenty of folks complaining lately that Nix comes with its own hassles.

How hard it is to "get anything haskell related running" - interpreted literally - depends very strongly on your platform. For instance on Debian it's a non-issue.

Doing more advanced things, like installing things from Hackage, requires more know-how. Because (unless you get lucky) your package db will have become too complex, or some package you need to install will have dependency-rotted.

Speaking of which, I recently released hledger and hledger-web 0.23.3 on hackage to fix dependency issues.

Craig, are you on Windows ? This recipe worked for me recently: install the Haskell Platform (picking the right 32/64 bit size for your system); cabal update; cabal install cabal-install; cabal sandbox init; cabal install hledger-web.
