Hi Daniel,

I think we eventually want to move dist/ inside the sandbox and eventually move the sandbox out of the package directory too. This is too support a world which is less focused on a single package. See my answer here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25278996/cabal-test-in-a-sandbox?noredirect=1#comment39425358_25278996

Hi,

currently it's conceptually and practically a bit unpleasant, that the
sandbox is a bit holey, because the 'dist' directory remains when
deleting the sandbox.

Is there a special reason for this behaviour?

In the case of a sandbox, why is there a 'dist' directory at all,
respectively why isn't it located inside of the '.cabal-sandbox' directory?


Greetings,
Daniel
