That sounds good to me. I'm setting up the RC2 builds now, so we can update our Cabal copy to the latest release after that, for the final release. Right now we're at e97aa58f68519db54de1c62339459ebb88aed069, which is just ahead of 1.18.1.3.

(Note that 1.18.1.3 is not a released version, just a version bump in the repo in preparation for the release.)

The 1.18 branch is currently at 0d5ffeb91075739246627da17bda945aedc6a427 and I'm worried that ee6d1cf5cefe18f6d74ed379af21d92f8b0ae92d hasn't seen enough testing. Duncan suggested ( https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/1660) that this change should be included in a GHC RC, but since that's a bit annoying I'll try a Cabal RC instead.

I just announce a RC1 for Cabal/cabal-install. In case you do any more GHC RCs, please update the GHC repo to the latest cabal 1.18 HEAD.
