+@joey how do I use stackage when using `cabal install`. I tried putting the `cabal.config` into `~/.cabal` but still keep getting the same DAV dependency error.
+
+I also tried building on Debian after running:
+
+ cabal update; cabal unpack git-annex
+ sudo apt-get build-dep git-annex`
+
+Results:
+
+ ➤ cabal configure -v
+ /usr/bin/ghc --numeric-version
+ looking for tool \"ghc-pkg\" near compiler in /usr/bin
+ found ghc-pkg in /usr/bin/ghc-pkg
+ /usr/bin/ghc-pkg --version
+ /usr/bin/ghc --supported-languages
+ /usr/bin/ghc --info

+ <command line>: cannot satisfy -package Cabal-1.18.1.3
+ (use -v for more information)
+
+I'm not a Haskell programmer, so I have no idea how to get this all working, nor how to install a new version of git-annex.
