Or if you want to install it globallly for everyone (otherwise it will
get installed into $HOME/.cabal/bin)
$ cabal install --global
The above will take a while to compile and install the needed
dependancies. I would suggest any user who does should run the tests
that comes with git-annex to make sure everything is functioning as
expected.
I haven't had a chance or need to install git-annex on a SL6 based
system yet, but I would assume something similar to the above steps
would be required to do so.
The above is almost a cut and paste of <http://jcftang.github.com/2012/06/15/installing-git-annex-on-sl5/>, the above could probably be refined, it was what worked for me on SL5. Please feel free to re-edit and chop out or add useless bits of text in the above!
Note: from the minor testing, it appears the compiled binaries from SL5 will work on SL6.
