Thanks for the link. I followed through to a couple of other links that broadly
support your position:
[1]
http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/MacOSX/Conceptual/BPFileSystem/Articles/LibraryDirectory.html
[2]
http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/MacOSX/Conceptual/BPFileSystem/Articles/Domains.html
But, on reading [1], I also see "Although an application can use this directory
[/Library] to store internal data or temporary files, it is not intended for
storage of the application bundle itself or for user data files. Application
bundles belong in an appropriate /Applications directory, while user data
belongs in the user’s home directory."
This makes me question whether /Application might be the appropriate place?
I'm pleased to see this issue is getting some serious consideration: I haven't
actually used Haskell for a while, and since I last did I've switched to using a
Mac for much ogf my development, so when I return to the Haskell fold it will be
nice to have the system play nicely with the host environment.
