for the purposes of building a single package, cabal-install mostly just invokes the [Cabal commands](http://www.haskell.org/cabal/users-guide/installing-packages.html) in a particular sequence (with some further settings in your `~/.cabal/config` file, which cabal proper...

I just read the ticket; my one comment is that I don't know how many users of `postgresql-libpq` there are on MacOSX. I haven't heard any reports of people using...

Well, again I won't be able to help much, although I would recommend trying this with the verbosity turned up, as well as trying to invoke `runghc Setup.hs configure` `runghc...

Also, I am curious, could you post the output of the `pg_config` command? And this may not help, but you might look at [this OpenBSD thread](http://openbsd.7691.n7.nabble.com/fix-hs-postgresql-libpq-after-kerberos-update-td230192.html), which suggests we should...

Well, postgresql-simple doesn't have any particular support for parameterizing table/schema names. That requires dynamic sql generation of a sort you'd have to perform yourself. This is something I'd like to...
