I'm trying to install cabal-nirvana on OSX 10.7.5, but I get the following output:
cabal install cabal-nirvana

(use -v for more information)
cabal: Error: some packages failed to install:
cabal-nirvana-0.2.2 failed during the building phase. The exception was:
ExitFailure 1
Any ideas?
In case it helps,
ghc: 7.4.1
cabal-install: 0.14.0
When I do ghc-pkg check, I get the following output:
WARNING: cache is out of date: /Library/Frameworks/GHC.framework/Versions/7.4.1- i386/usr/lib/ghc-7.4.1/package.conf.d/package.cache
use 'ghc-pkg recache' to fix.

Nevermind... I did the 'ghc-pkg recache' and a 'sudo cabal update cabal-install', and then I was able to install cabal-nirvana without issues... The keyword here appears to be 'sudo'... D'oh!
... And by "Nevermind" I don't mean the Nirvana album :)

Just installed the Haskell platform. When I do
$ cabal install cabal cabal-install
I get

The same thing happens trying to install manually from source.
I have been unable to install any packages using Cabal, getting an error saying that the tar archive is not in the expected directory. For example, if I try to do, cabal install mtl, I get the following error:
Resolving dependencies...
Failed to install text-1.2.1.1
cabal: Error: some packages failed to install:
text-1.2.1.1 failed while unpacking the package. The exception was:
user error (File in tar archive is not in the expected directory. Expected:
"." but got the following hierarchy: ["text-1.2.1.1"])
I have run cabal update, and cabal --version gives the following:
$ cabal --version
cabal-install version 1.22.5.0
using version 1.22.4.0 of the Cabal library
Anyone have any ideas as to why this might be happening? Let me know if you need any additional information.
That version of cabal-install had a big making it almost completely unusable. Upgrading should solve this problem.
I need to install Yesod and dependancies trough Cabal, unfortunately I'm not able to update cabal. Shell output:
...$ sudo cabal install cabal-install

Anyone knows how to fix it? Nothing really makes sense to me.
The solution can be found here: Installing & Building GHC with OSX Mavericks GHC
The commandline tools from apple are required!
Thanks!
I get the following error when trying to run cabal install cabal-install

Try:

I had the same problem and that works for me.
Go to your .cabal/config file, look for the line that says "library-profiling: ".
This should be set to "False" for MacOSX, otherwise it will fail to find the packages that are installed. You'll get funny errors from the build phase where it was unable to import certain modules because "maybe" certain packages aren't installed.
When I do
cabal install GLFW-b
I get an error:

I am running the Haskell Platform 2010.2.0.0. Does anybody else get this? How can I fix this error?
The Haskell Platform version you're using included Cabal-1.8.0.6. The simplest solution should be to upgrade to the latest Haskell Platform which includes Cabal-1.10.1.0.
