[Hackage] #426: .cabal files should be stored next to tarballs, potentially overriding in-tarball version

#426: .cabal files should be stored next to tarballs, potentially overriding in- tarball version ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: claus | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.6.0.1 Severity: normal | Keywords: Difficulty: normal | Ghcversion: 6.8.3 Platform: | ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- `.cabal` files are *the* description of cabal packages, yet cabal/hackage hide them inside the package tarballs. For easy access, I would like the local package cache to store a copy of the `.cabal` file right next to the tarball. Changes in the out-of-package `.cabal` should override the original, in-package `.cabal`, allowing bug-fixing/adaptation to local packaging issues. -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/426> Hackage <http://haskell.org/cabal/> Hackage: Cabal and related projects

Dependencies in user repository
by Lars Kotthoff 04 Dec '08

04 Dec '08

Dear all, I'm having trouble getting Cabal to find packages installed in my user repository. When I run ghc-pkg list manually, I can see all the required packages, listed in the section for my user repository. When I run ghci I can import said packages as well. Yet when I run ghc on the Setup.hs file of a package which requires said packages, it tells me that the dependencies are missing. It works when I use --package-db to explicitely point it to the user package.conf. Am I missing an extra flag or something like that to make it take the packages in the user repository into account? I'm using Cabal version 1.6.0.1. Thanks, Lars
