Directions say; If this doesn’t work, you can manually copy the executable files to the ~/.local/bin directory. Replace the place holder <TAGGED VERSION> with your targeted version:
I’m not sure what executable files to copy.
They are talking about cardano-cli and cardano-node. These should get copied to your $HOME/.local/bin directory
so, I backed up a few steps would it have something to do with this?
they are talking about the cardano-cli and node 1.25.1?
Did you run cabal update as the compiler suggests?
yes, cabal configure --with-compiler=ghc-8.10.2
Warning: The package list for ‘hackage.haskell.org’ does not exist. Run ‘cabal update’ to download it.
So the question is did you do that before calling cabal configure --with-compiler=ghc-8.10.2?
No, I did do this after. When I saw the message. I did go back and did it again. My cabal is showing version 3.2.0.0
and after calling the cabal update have you called cabal configure...?
Yes, I did this twice now. I actual I did all the steps over again and go this message.
this is the first time you are trying to build the node?
On this computer, Yes
and what is the operating system?
just to let you know that binaries also available from the official cardano-wallet repository:
Under assets there is a tarball package which contains the following binaries:
bech32
cardano-address
cardano-cli
cardano-node
cardano-tx
cardano-wallet
also could you please modify the topic title to node install error - cabal: Could not resolve dependencies - with that probably you will get proper attention for your issue
