The attached patch inserts a '-' between name-version and pid. -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/730> Hackage <http://haskell.org/cabal/> Hackage: Cabal and related projects

I got: {{{ $ cabal install glib Resolving dependencies... /var/folders/9I/9Ic7OfDBGVmrCPM+NiQOAWp80Kc/-Tmp-/glib-0.11.092062/glib-0.11.0/Gtk2HsSetup.hs:25:0: warning: #warning Setup.hs is guessing the version of Cabal.
