Can anyone help? You can get these listed packages (Cabal, HTTP and zlib) in Hackage ( http://hackage.haskell.org/ ).

Cabal managed to bootstrap just fine when installed with runhaskell Setup.hs ... as usual on my windows machine. (and running make would have been a problem). But to install cabal-install (the command line interface), you have to install cabal (the library) first. I assume that in the future, ghc will include cabal-install? Until then, it would be nice to have some ad-hoc solution to add cabal-install to a fresh installation of ghc (e.g. a tarball containing cabal-install and it's dependencies and a build script, or a script which downloads said dependencies). Currently, people have to learn dependency chasing and manual hackage/cabal installation just to install cabal-install, which does a great job at making this skill useless. Apropos cabal-install: can i make it build documentation during the installation process and store them in some central location?

I also wondered about that. Maybe a '--haddock' flag for 'cabal install' ? _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@... http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe |

The Cabal library package always bootstraps using its own source code. It does not need any existing version. Despite the bootstrapping it is just an ordinary Cabal package. It can be configured and built in the standard way using runhaskell or cabal-install. > Just run "make" to bootstrap it, IIRC. Though that also works.

Maybe a '--haddock' flag for 'cabal install' ? Everyone seems to ask the same (me too). See Ticket #206 (http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/206). Additional comments count as priority bumper!
