I’m thrilled that there so much Cabal activity!
Is anyone working on, or interested in, the issue of compiling and installing the same package against different dependencies? (There
was a Google SoC project about this.) Cabal sandboxes address the same issue, but at some user cost. It should Just Work.

Hi,
Cabal development is continuing at a furious pace. There are lots of great things in master that I'd like to get out to users, such as
* relinking avoidance
* build -j
* ability to specify exact deps on the command line
* haskell-suite compiler support
* bug fixes
Here's an approximate list of commits (both Cabal and cabal-install) since the last release:
It's not entirely accurate as some patches were cherry-picked onto the 1.18 branch and thus have different commit IDs.
