I'd prefer a single documentation bundle for everything ever built on hackage, rather than trying to get haddock to run on each build.

Hi,

I am a Arch linux + GHC user. I found it difficult to download documentations for GHC and all the modules. The GHC site does not seem to have a single tar.gz file by which one could down load the entire documentation tree.

Same problem for modules build via yaourt. Of course one could build it directly from the appropriate cabal package but is there an automatic way via pacman/yaourt for example ?

Since I don't know any better working solution, I use simply patched cabal2arch which adds haddock generation (attached).

All packages will need to depend on haddock now.

Only build-depend. Anyway, it's okay for personal use (and for binary packages) and there's currently no other working way to get packaged docs I'm aware of (and there's probably no way to get docs without installed haddock at all -- e.g. hackage doesn't build docs for gtk2hs dependent stuff). -- Roman I.

Yes, I think this might be a good idea. I imagine most haskell-* users are developers... so we should ship the dev packages by default? vogt.adam:

On a very related note, what of enabling profiling (-p flag to cabal) ?

It pretty well doubles the library size, but it is a pain to rebuild libraries for profiling when looking for the code that could adjusted.
