cabal install error: Not in scope: type constructor 'Rel' about hledger-flow HOT 2 CLOSED

I will give stack or binary a try. I am too green with Haskell to give cabal install support a try. I do appreciate the welcoming offer to help. Thank you for your time to explain and offer options.

Update: I did both stack install hledger-flow and binary download & extract methods (kept them separate etc…) and each installed as you described. Verified by asking each for --version and --help. (Will get into set up and use later). Thank you.

Hi @reedmb,

Thanks for reporting this 👍

I use stack to build hledger-flow, have a look at the build instructions here:

https://github.com/apauley/hledger-flow/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.org#build-the-project

Does that work for you?

You can also download a pre-compiled binary here and put it in your path.

Alternatively, I would be very happy to look at a pull request that makes a cabal install work, as long as the stack build keeps working.

Would you like to investigate the issue and add cabal install support?

I'm going to remove the bug label for now - cabal install isn't currently listed as an installation option in this project, so this will probably be a new build option if we're going to add it.
