Install with cabal - Debian 11.3

[CoghettoR]

Hi,

Please submit an issue or pull request if these commands don't work for you (in README.md):

cabal update
git clone git@github.com:agda/agda.git
cd agda
git checkout release-2.6.2
cabal install Agda-2.6.2 --program-suffix=-2.6.2  # (takes a very long time)
cd ~/.cabal/bin/
touch ~/.emacs
cp ~/.emacs ~/.emacs.backup
./agda-mode-2.6.2 setup
./agda-mode-2.6.2 compile
mkdir -p ~/bin
cp ~/.emacs ~/bin
cp ~/.emacs.backup ~/.emacs
cd ~/bin
echo '#!/bin/bash' > agdamacs
echo 'PATH=~/.cabal/bin:$PATH emacs --no-init-file --load ~/bin/.emacs $@' >> agdamacs
chmod +x agdamacs
echo 'export PATH=~/bin:~/.cabal/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.profile

I start with an empty "~/.cabal" directory (otherwise it is possible to have installation problems)

I followed the above procedure, with modifications:

I replaced git clone git@github.com:agda/agda.git by
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/agda/agda.git to have access to
the file "standard-library.agda-lib"

I replaced ./agda-mode-2.6.2 setup and ./agda-mode-2.6.2 compile by
./agda-mode setup and ./agda-mode compile

I added the file ~/.agda/libraries containing :
~/agda/std-lib/standard-library.agda-lib (you have to adapt if necessary with your own path)

so I could use agda-algebras (but with another slight modification):
$ git clone https://github.com/ualib/agda-algebras.git

I replaced, in the file agda-algebras.agda-lib the line depend: standard-library-1.7 by the line depend: standard-library-1.7.1

$ cd agda-algebras
$ make test
[...]
$

or

$ cd src/Examples/Categories
$ agda Functors.lagda
$

Have a nice day,

Thanks a lot for the report - one of us will look in more detail soon.
