Hi Daneel,

Recently I've found wonderful thing cabal can install packages itself! It can even install those packages which need for final one. But I'm disturbed cabal doesn't create the documentation of a package by default. It manually makes "runhaskell Setup haddock".

Who knows? I believe you can do 'cabal haddock', but I don't know why it doesn't do it by default.

BTW, the Haskell Café is typically more suitable for questions such as these. The Generics list is more specifically for generic programming discussions while the Haskell Café serves a broader audience. I've CC'd haskell-cafe@ to see if anybody there knows the answer to your question.

If you use cabal-install (as you should!), you can have it build haddocks by customizing ~/.cabal/config and adding:

documentation: True

Thank you very much for short hint, but effective one. Daneel Yaitskov.
