Hello, I hope this is the right place to ask for help.

I am new to Haskell and Propellor; just want to give it a try. I have been using ansible but now looking for an alternative.

I did the following steps:
- install propellor on control machine with: `stack install propellor`
- `propellor --init`
- create a minimal config.hs file, which does nothing:
```
abc :: Host
abc = host "abc" $ props
	& osDebian (Stable "stretch") X86_64
```

when I run `propellor --spin abc`, it ended with the last following:
.
.
Installed propellor-5.3.4
Resolving dependencies...
Configuring config-0...
Preprocessing executable 'propellor-config' for config-0...
cabal: can't find source for config in .
sh: 1: ./propellor: not found
propellor: user error (ssh <long text>

Can someone give me a hint how to process further?

Regards,
Tony
