We could make that better by doing one of:\r\n\r\n* Ship `wget.exe` and a `stackage.bat` file that does the appropriate command line.\r\n* Have a `stackage.exe` binary (probably backed by a Cabal package on Hackage) that links in network and defaults to the right URL (that seems useful anyway). This could have more smarts, and wouldn't require wget.\r\n\r\nNot sure if this should be moved to the Stackage tracker..."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/fpco/minghc/issues/comments/68690528","html_url":"https://github.com/fpco/minghc/issues/19#issuecomment-68690528","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/fpco/minghc/issues/19","id":68690528,"user":{"login":"snoyberg","id":49415,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/49415?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/snoyberg","html_url":"https://github.com/snoyberg","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/snoyberg/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/snoyberg/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/snoyberg/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/snoyberg/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/snoyberg/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/snoyberg/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/snoyberg/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/snoyberg/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/snoyberg/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-01-05T10:26:53Z","updated_at":"2015-01-05T10:26:53Z","body":"I'm in favor of shipping the binary.
