OK, I think I'm starting to remember more bits and pieces...

I don't think that's relevant, firstly, because my ~/.cabal/config says
explicitly to install packages in ~/.cabal, and secondly, because the wx

Brian,
Does this work better?
cabal install wx --configure-opt="--user --enable-split-objs --hcprof"
(The key difference is the --configure-opt)

have changed the permissions/ownership of the pacckage.conf.
