Warning: The install command is a part of the legacy v1 style of cabal usage. Please switch to using either the new project style and the new-install command or the legacy v1-install alias as new-style projects will become the default in the next version of cabal-install. Please file a bug if you cannot replicate a working v1- use case with the new-style commands.
