I don't think that's relevant, firstly, because my ~/.cabal/config says explicitly to install packages in ~/.cabal, and secondly, because the wx cabal package seems written to install itself globally no matter what ~/.cabal/config says. 'cabal install wx' dies shortly after trying to register itself by running cat config/wxcore.pkg | sed -e "s|\${wxhlibdir}|/home/brian/.cabal/lib|" | ghc-pkg update - ghc-pkg is hardcoded to use the global package configuration: $ cat $(which ghc-pkg) #!/bin/sh PKGCONF=/usr/lib/ghc-6.10.4/./package.conf exec /usr/lib/ghc-6.10.4/ghc-pkg --global-conf $PKGCONF ${1+"$@"} I don't know how to make it any more clear that this behavior is really wrong. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
