Re: [Haskell-cafe] Cabal ^M bug

The password is haskell' (notice the apostrophe at the end). I think the
password should be changed to something easier to read.
Also, I can confirm that this is a bug because I have run into it myself.

Cabal appears to have an end-of-line bug. If the .cabal file is created on Windows and the project is installed on a Unix system, the resulting executable ends up having ^M at the end because Cabal doesn't properly handle Windows line termination. If the .cabal file is converted to Unix style, everything installs as expected.
I tried to submit a ticket to Cabal via the wiki but couldn't authenticate (guest/haskell, as says on the web page, doesn't seem to work). Also HackageDB link seems to be down. I'm not sure who's maintaining the project, so I'm emaling here.
