<div class="im">&gt; Hi all,<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; We&#39;re close to a new release of Cabal/cabal-install and I&#39;d appreciate some<br>
&gt; help in testing the new release. To install the release candidate, simply<br>
&gt; run:<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; cabal install <a href="http://johantibell.com/files/Cabal-1.18.0.tar.gz" target="_blank">http://johantibell.com/files/Cabal-1.18.0.tar.gz</a><br>
&gt; <a href="http://johantibell.com/files/cabal-install-1.18.0.tar.gz" target="_blank">http://johantibell.com/files/cabal-install-1.18.0.tar.gz</a><br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Please try on different OSes if you have several available. Report bugs at<br>

</div>&gt; *Things to try*<br>
<div class="im">&gt;<br>
&gt; This is not a complete list of new features (and bugs fixed)!<br>
&gt;<br>
</div>&gt; *Sandboxing*<br>
<div class="im">&gt;<br>
&gt; Sandboxes help prevent &quot;dependency hell&quot; by having each project you&#39;re<br>
&gt; working on use a separate package database to install its dependencies in.<br>
&gt; Try it out on one of your projects like so:<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; cd my-pkg<br>
&gt; cabal sandbox init  # only once<br>
&gt; cabal install --only-dependencies<br>
&gt; cabal configure<br>
&gt; cabal build<br>
&gt;<br>
</div>&gt; *GHCi support*<br>
<div class="im">&gt;<br>
&gt; The new cabal repl commands lets you load up your library inside GHCi<br>
&gt; without lots of command line fiddling. Just run<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; cabal repl<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; instead of cabal build and play around without your library.<br>
&gt;<br>
</div>&gt; *Known issues to be fixed before release*<br>
