Better defaults

Open hvr opened this issue 7 years ago • 0 comments

I came across what I believe to provide better defaults for the HP distribution as they'd avoid a common confusion encountered by users ("I just installed the HP x.y.z which comes with GHC x.y.z but why does Stack insist on installing a redundant GHC x.y.z?" or "I just installed HP 8.4.2 ... why do I see GHC 8.2.2 being run?")

stack config set system-ghc --global true
stack config set install-ghc --global false
