Cabal unexpected behaviour when upgrading
1
ramiro@omfg-hello:~$ cabal --version
cabal-install version 1.24.0.2
compiled using version 1.24.2.0 of the Cabal library
ramiro@omfg-hello:~$ sudo cabal install cabal-install --force-reinstalls
[sudo] password for ramiro:

Installed cabal-install-2.4.0.0
ramiro@omfg-hello:~$ cabal --version
cabal-install version 1.24.0.2
compiled using version 1.24.2.0 of the Cabal library
Indeed i wasn't expecting something like this. I'm stunned.
Edit:
Fixed with @duplode comment
Further edit:
Anybody knows why i'm still getting this?
ramiro@omfg-hello:~/Haskell/happstack-server$ sudo cabal new-test all
cabal: unrecognised command: new-test (try --help)
At least i get the correct cabal version now
ramiro@omfg-hello:~/Haskell/happstack-server$ cabal --v
cabal-install version 2.4.0.0
compiled using version 2.4.0.1 of the Cabal library
EditN :
ramiro@omfg-hello:~/Haskell/happstack-server$ cabal new-build
/home/ramiro/.cabal/packages/hackage.haskell.org: openBinaryTempFileWithDefaultPermissions: permission denied (Permission denied)
ramiro@omfg-hello:~/Haskell/happstack-server$ sudo cabal new-build
[sudo] password for ramiro:

(1) Do not usesudoto runcabal. With typical workflows, cabal-install is meant to be ran from your regular user account. (2) Make sure$HOME/.cabal/bin, the default location for executables installed with cabal-install, appears in your PATH before the system-wide location of your preexisting cabal-install. (3) Remember you can check where the executable actually is withwhich cabal.
