Package-based install
- The Arch Linux documentation is one of the most comprehensive but it is sometimes too much for the beginner. Hence this guide to install Arch Linux in a step by step manner. What you need before installing Arch Linux? Make sure you have the following list sorted before you install Arch Linux. Arch Linux.iso file download link below.
- Aug 03, 2020 1) Installing Packages on Arch Linux using Pacman. Arch Linux comes with default package manager tool called Pacman which uses tar to package applications. Pacman works seamlessly with Arch Build System. To install a package with pacman, use -S option. The example below will install vlc and elinks packages on Arch using pacman.
Ubuntu
Steps to setup ghc and cabal are given in the ghc ppa
Convert DEB Packages Into Arch Linux Packages Using Debtap. To convert any DEB package, say Quadrapassel, to Arch Linux package using debtap, do: $ debtap quadrapassel3.22.0-1.1arm64.deb. The above command will convert the given.deb file into a Arch Linux package. You will be asked to enter the name of the package maintainer and license. Dec 07, 2019 Linux is the operating system with more kinds of packages. Surely, if you have used Debian, you should know the file type.deb or maybe, if you have used Fedora, you should know the file type.rpm. In Linux, we have a lot of file types when we talk about.
Packages from the PPA can be installed as follows:
Packages are installed into /opt/ghc/bin and /opt/cabal/bin
Steps to setup stack are on the stack website.
Debian (jessie and stretch)
Steps to setup ghc and cabal are given in the ghc debian apt repository
Steps to setup stack are on the stack website.
Fedora
GHC, cabal-install and stack are in the official Fedora repos, to install:
sudo dnf install ghc cabal-install stack
There are also Fedora module streams with newer versions of ghc:
sudo dnf module list ghcsudo dnf module install ghc:X.Y
The different versions cannot be parallel installed.
There are also unofficial Fedora Copr repos with more recent cabal-install and stack.
Steps to setup stack are also on the stack website.
EPEL for RHEL/CentOS/etc
- EPEL 7 has ghc-7.6.3 and cabal-install-1.16.1.0
- EPEL 5 and 6 have ghc-7.0.4 and cabal-install-0.10.2
To install these older versions of ghc and cabal-install from the official EPEL repo, just run the install command:
sudo yum install ghc cabal-install
For newer versions of ghc you can use the unofficial Fedora Copr repos:
- petersen/ghc-8.2.2 Copr repo (EL7,EL6)
Note that the different ghc package versions cannot be installed in parallel.
Steps to setup stack are on the stack website. You can also obtain stack from the fedora petersen/stack Copr repo
Arch Linux
The official repos on Arch Linux contain packages ghc, cabal-install, happy, alex, haddock. Install them with:
Steps to setup stack are on the stack website.
openSUSE Leap
- Leap 15.1 has ghc-8.6.4 and cabal-install-2.4.0.0
To install from official openSUSE:Leap repo, just run the install command:
sudo zypper in ghc cabal-install
For last stable version you can use the development openSUSE repository:
Use this command to add repository to your system:
sudo zypper ar -f -p 90 https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/haskell/openSUSE_Leap_15.1/devel:languages:haskell.repo
openSUSE Tumbleweed
- Tumbleweed has last stable version of ghc and cabal install.
To install from official openSUSE:Tumbleweed repo, just run the install command:
sudo zypper in ghc cabal-install
Generic Tarballs
Generic minimal installers that work on most modern linux distributions are available via the Haskell Platform
Manual install
To install GHC and Cabal manually, follow these steps.
1. Install GHC
GHC has its own web site with license information, FAQ, download links and changelogs. Depending on your operating system, there should be a package made for its package manager, otherwise (e.g. Windows) it will be an installer.
You can also download the .tar.gz/.zip and unpack and install the executables and so forth manually.
Or you can even install from source, for which there is documentation.
2. Install Cabal-install
After installing GHC, you will want the Haskell package manager:
Download the tar.gz file, extract and inside the resulting directory, run:
This will automatically download and install all the packages necessary to setup Cabal install.
Once complete, you should add $HOME/.cabal/bin to your PATH. A simple way to do this is to edit your ~/.bashrc and place in there:
Now you should be able to run cabal:
You can now update your package set:
And install proced to use cabal with your projects.
3. Installing Stack
Generic stack binary downloads are available from the stack website.
Note: The packages on this page are maintained and supported by their respective packagers, not the Node.js core team. Please report any issues you encounter to the package maintainer. If it turns out your issue is a bug in Node.js itself, the maintainer will report the issue upstream.
Android
Android support is still experimental in Node.js, so precompiled binaries are not yet provided by Node.js developers.
However, there are some third-party solutions. For example, Termux community provides terminal emulator and Linux environment for Android, as well as own package manager and extensive collection of many precompiled applications. This command in Termux app will install the last available Node.js version:
Currently, Termux Node.js binaries are linked against system-icu (depending on libicu package).
Arch Linux

Nodenv
nodenv is a lightweight node version manager, similar to nvm. It's simple and predictable. A rich plugin ecosystem lets you tailor it to suit your needs. Use nodenv to pick a Node version for your application and guarantee that your development environment matches production.
Nodenv installation instructions are maintained on its Github page. Please visit that page to ensure you're following the latest version of the installation steps.
nvm
Node Version Manager is a bash script used to manage multiple released Node.js versions. It allowsyou to perform operations like install, uninstall, switch version, etc.To install nvm, use this install script.
On Unix / OS X systems Node.js built from source can be installed usingnvm by installing into the location that nvm expects:
After this you can use nvm to switch between released versions and versionsbuilt from source.For example, if the version of Node.js is v8.0.0-pre:
Once the official release is out you will want to uninstall the version builtfrom source:
