cabal-install tool (version 0.5.2)

cabal-install is the command line interface to Cabal and hackage. This is the package that provides the 'cabal' command line program.

August 2008: Release 0.5.2
This is the latest in the 0.5.x series. It has several new minor features and bug fixes.

Download: cabal-install-0.5.2.tar.gz

It requires the Cabal package above and also the HTTP and zlib packages, which can be found on hackage. To make the process easier the cabal-install tarball contains a bootstrap.sh script which downloads and installs all three dependencies.
