I initially installed haskell platform ( 2013 version; 7.6.3 ghc ) on my mac. Everything was working great. Just now saw the haskell platform website again and found new version was released ( Haskell Platform 2014.2.0.0 for Mac OS X, 64bit ). I installed it, and un-installed the older version using uninstall-hs.</p>

Now when i type "cabal" or "cabal update" on my terminal, it hangs. Actually when i look into Activity Monitor, i can see that it is invoking some "sh script & possibly some find command" infinitely. I initially guess may be it is building some indexes. but it has been running for an hr or so.</p>

I have Xcode 5, gcc and other command line tools installed properly</p><p style="margin:0px 0px 1em;padding:0px;border:0px;font-size:14px;vertical-align:baseline;clear:both;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial,'Liberation Sans','DejaVu Sans',sans-serif;line-height:17.804800033569336px;background-image:initial;background-repeat:initial">


Please advice. I cannot install any other package using cabal.</p><p style="margin:0px 0px 1em;padding:0px;border:0px;font-size:14px;vertical-align:baseline;clear:both;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial,'Liberation Sans','DejaVu Sans',sans-serif;line-height:17.804800033569336px;background-image:initial;background-repeat:initial">
