I am trying to do an automated install of Cabal packages, on EC2
using Ubuntu's cloud-config. The error above was caught in my
logs.

Cloud-config sets up a minimal environment prior to running any
tasks. All the package managers I've worked with so far -- gem,
npm, apt -- have no problem with this. It would be nice to find
a way to turn off Cabal's user-centric behaviour.
