Installing hsdev-0.3.3.1 on PixelBook Chromeos (with workaround)

[vtomilin]

Hopefully the below might come handy to anyone trying to use their PixelBook for Haskell development with Sublime Text 3.

In order to use hsdev with Sublime Text 3 it is recommended (at the time of writing) that hsdev-0.3.3.1 is installed. However, the installation by stack fails seemingly due to absence of libtinfo-dev package, missing in default Linux (Debian) installation on PixelBook.

Therefore, a simple workaround is to install libtinfo-dev manually:

sudo apt-get install libtinfo-dev

After that, I was able to complete hsdev installation with stack tool.
