Re: patch applied (packages/array): FIX BUILD: build-depends should be inside library { ... }
* FIX BUILD: build-depends should be inside library { ... }
Apologies for breaking the ghc build on this. But is there a good rationale for this restriction? It seems obvious to me that, in a cabal file with a library{} and possibly many executable{} stanzas, one may wish to common-up some of those fields that appear frequently, rather than duplicate them in each stanza.

I see no obvious problem with such an extension. Duncan
