Is there something I need to do to enable import of Haskell packages from the user package database?

While most apps and tools on my system (GHC, GHCi, Cabal, Stack, my IDE, etc.) seem to be aware of both the global and user package databases by default. Ask least some — e.g., IHaskell — is unable to import any packages in my user package database.

Is there something I can do globally to my Haskell/GHC installation so that my user packages are visible to all Haskell tools and applications I install?


I'm using Homebrew Haskell on OS X 10.11, and have the package databases in the standard locations:

/usr/local/Cellar/ghc/7.10.2/lib/ghc-7.10.2/package.conf.d

and

/Users/Rax/.ghc/x86_64-darwin-7.10.2/package.conf.d

This is an error specific to IHaskell, which will be addressed in a future release.
