Cabal: download dependencies for later offline build

Dear reader,


I'm experimenting with creating my own little build server using disk images as job input/output and KVM to run them[1].

As a security measure, the build process does not have any network access during the build, so I need to make sure everything is available before the build starts.

What is the easiest way to "take a cabal build offline" as it were, so I can make sure a cabal build will work without a network connection?

Greetings,

Bram

I can't believe I missed that option when looking at the help. Thank you!
