I had a chat with waern &amp; eivuokko today on #ghc about support web-based links for haddock.ghc, and I&#39;d like to hear some voices.&nbsp; The chat is at <a href="http://conal.net/misc/2007-08-17-ghc.html">http://conal.net/misc/2007-08-17-ghc.html
</a>.<br><br>The --read-interface flag has been removed in haddock.ghc, in favor of grabbing the info out of package.conf.&nbsp; Unfortunately, that change breaks the only way I know of to get web-based inter-package links correct.&nbsp; We were thinking that there could just be a new, url-valued 
package.conf field, haddock-html-web, to augment the local-path-valued haddock-html field.&nbsp; In addition, haddock could have flags --net-links or --local-links, to determine whether to use haddock-html or haddock-html-web.
<br><br>Then we&#39;d want to have support from cabal, to pass the new field into the .installed-pkg-config.<br><br>BTW, I see &quot;haddock-html&quot; in my .installed-pkg-config, but &quot;haddockHtmls&quot; in package.conf
.&nbsp; Is there some kind of translation magic to perform?<br><br>Comments?<br><br>&nbsp; - Conal<br>
