After forcefully installing the latest “bytestring” package I’ve stumbled into a dependency hell. I want to wipe all local packages out, so that I could re-cabal-install them after.

What is the correct way of doing that? Is there a better way of recreating the local repository?

    On OS X you can clear the following directory:

    ~/Library/Haskell/ghc-XXX/lib/
    

    Globally installed packages are in, but they are commonly installed by the Haskell Platform installer, as the default is to install packages for the current user only:

    /Library/Haskell/ghc-XXX/lib/
    

    If you are on Windows or Linux try the following code (source) in ghci:

    :m System.Directory
    getAppUserDataDirectory "cabal"
    

    The config file there will tell you where you are installing user packages to.
