Hi guys:

I don´t know how difficult really is, but it seens that it could be done
because all the necessary elements are there (except perhaps the mapping
package name-hackage url): Why hasn´t been done yet Is unknown to me.
It would be very useful and a big save of time  to have a cabal commad
"chech-dependencies-and-install-them-by-downloading-them-from-hackage-then-configure-build-and-install-this-package?.
The unix installers do is t from binaries and are obsolete, so I have to do
it manually with cabal everytime  when i download a new compiler version
 from haskell.org.

Cheers
  Alberto.
