In Haskell, -- is the start of a single-line comment (like // in
Java), and cabal-install has taken that for its configuration file
(rather than # like in most config files). So remove the -- from the
front of the line to get it working.

[Haskell-cafe] Cabal-install prefix
I am new to Haskell, and am trying to install a package (scan) using
cabal-install. I want it to install all files under the directory
${HOME}/nonvc, like in ~/nonvc/share and ~/nonvc/bin. So I specified
install-dirs user
-- prefix: /home/raghu/nonvc
in ~/.cabal/config. But when I do `cabal install scan', it still
installs the files in ~/.cabal/bin and ~/.cabal/share. How do I make
cabal install these files in ~/nonvc?
Thanks and regards,
Raghavendra.
