 This feature request was submitted via the Debian Bugtracker at
 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=576303:

 Paths in ~/.cabal/config don't seem to support ~ or any other means of
 specifying $HOME.  This makes it difficult to specify paths like prefix,
 build-summary, and remote-repo-cache in a non-system-specific way.

 Greetings,
 Joachim
