Is it possible to install C libraries before building on Hackage?

   Stable Haskell package sets: vetted consistent packages from Hackage

   

   It makes total sense that it fails since at no point I requested that the library be installed, which makes me wonder: Is there any way to request Hackage to install SDL and GLEW before attempting the build? I see Stackage has debian-bootstrap.sh. Does something similar exist for Hackage?

2. Stream

   Hi! To clarify, I don't intend to install libraries on a user's machine globally. The project has a Setup page that describes what needs to be installed before building. This works fine since a human can follow those steps, but that is not the case with Hackage. Hence the need to have a way of installing external libraries at some point in the workflow.
