First: are you sure you’re running it as the correct user? Have you somehow set in your
~/.cabal/config(or wherever the settings are kept on OSX) that it should do it as a global install?Also check the permissions of where the tarball will be downloaded to:
This should show that your user is indeed allowed to download the list of packages.
