Remote tarballs

[ip1981]

It looks like cabal2nix does not support fetching remote archives like tag.gz, etc. At least not that simple. Maybe it gets confused by the Mercurial stuff inside the archive.

$ cabal2nix --subpath hspec-webdriver https://bitbucket.org/capitalmatch/webdriver-utils/get/ab943426dde0.tar.bz2
