Hi everyone, Some of the dependencies for Yesod (such as haskell-src) require happy. For the "Yesod in Five Minutes" page[1], I've given instructions to cabal install happy and then cabal install yesod. However, as Xavier Shay pointed out to me, this won't actually work on a vanilla install, since happy gets installed in the cabal bin folder, which is not by default on the PATH. Two questions:
* Should we document this somewhere in the Haskell Platform install process? I'm sure many old-time users of cabal are well aware that they need ~/.cabal/bin in the PATH, but new users will not be. I would also like to update Yesod's documentation; does anyone have standard phrasing that is applicable to all operating systems? * Should we consider modifying the build tools to automatically look for build dependencies in the cabal bin folder?
