Hm, I didn't get what you meant at first, but just to clarify: no, 
Ganeti does not install its dependencies using `cabal install'. It 
relies on system packages, however it uses `cabal configure' with an 
empty cabal config and subsequently parses dist/setup-config to obtain 
the dependency versions.
