Looks like your proxy configuration is wrong. Git has its own proxy settings in .gitconfig. Look at the http_proxy environment variable.
If you're not actually behind a proxy the problem could be the existence of http_proxy or HTTP_PROXY.

Ämne: Cabal can't open a TCP connection
Dear ghc-devs
Cabal can’t open a TCP connection from my Linux box. It used to work fine. Here’s what it says:
cabal -v3 update
Downloading the latest package list from hackage.haskell.org
Sending:
GET http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/00-index.tar.gz HTTP/1.1
User-Agent: cabal-install/1.16.0.2
Host: hackage.haskell.org
proxy uri host: , port:
Creating new connection to
cabal: openTCPConnection: host lookup failure for ""
simonpj at cam-05-unx:~/code/HEAD$ cabal --version
cabal-install version 1.16.0.2
using version 1.16.0.3 of the Cabal library
simonpj at cam-05-unx:~/code/HEAD$
Can anyone help me work out what to do? git works just fine, so the internet is connected all right.
Thanks
Simon
