For most people, the recommended approach is to install the Haskell Platform. This is not a minimal setup - it includes packages you would need for most normal use of Haskell. http://hackage.haskell.org/platform/ To get a minimal setup, you need to install GHC and cabal-install. That will allow you to install just the packages you need as you need them. This is not recommended for most people - there are prerequisites, and there may be some complexities depending on your platform. Anyway, the instructions are here: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_6_12_2.html http://www.haskell.org/cabal/download.html > Also, is there any automatic way so that I don't have to manually > delete the folders and edit package.conf? There isn't a smooth way to uninstall packages at the moment. You don't need to edit package.conf, though, and you shouldn't. Use "ghc-pkg unregister {pkg-id}". You do need to delete the folders manually, unfortunately.
