Cabal not installing dependencies when needing profiling libraries?

Question

I want to compile my program with profiling, so I run:

$ cabal configure --enable-executable-profiling
...
$ cabal build
...
    Could not find module \'Grap         


        

Answer 1

Daniel Fischer's answer looks good, but for some reason my ~/.cabal/world library only contained entries for libraries directly installed, and not their dependencies.

Instead, I dumped out a list of all installed libraries using

$ ghc-pkg list > list

This lists the libraries installed system-wide and locally. Therefore, I edited the list file to remove the first portion (containing libraries installed system-wide) leaving only the lines after /home//.ghc/.... Finally, I ran

$ cabal install --reinstall $(cat list) 

This worked for me. You should maybe do --dry-run first. Then go make a pot of tea. Or bake a cake.
