--extra-library-dirs Extra library directories.
--ghc-package-path The GHC_PACKAGE_PATH environment variable.

--global-pkg-db The global package database.
--local-bin The directory in which Stack installs executables.
--local-doc-root The root directory for local project documentation.
--local-hoogle-root The root directory for local project documentation.
--local-hpc-root The root directory for .tix files and HPC reports.
--local-install-root The root directory for local project installation.
--local-pkg-db The local package database.
--programs The root directory for GHC and other Stack-supplied tools.
--project-root The project root directory.
--snapshot-doc-root The root directory for snapshot documentation.
