I'm on OSX 10.6 and I have platform 2010.2.0.0 currently. Should I just install 2011.2.0.1 on top or is there an update mechanism that will be smoother?

On Windows, all of GHC's files are installed in a single directory. If you choose ``Custom'' from the list of install options, you will be given a choice about where this directory is; otherwise it will be installed in c:/ghc/ghc-version.
Run the command "$ sudo apt-get install haskell-platform" and press Enter. It will automatically start downloading Haskell on your system after authenticating you with the root password. After installing, you will receive a confirmation message.
Package versus projectStack is a build tool and it uses Cabal, a build system. Cabal defines the concept of a package. A package has: A name and version.
I've definitely had bumpy upgrade experiences with the Haskell Platform. If you have enough trouble that you just want to wipe the thing and start fresh (you wouldn't be the first!), take a look here:
