> Maybe Hadrian will help here?
Hadrian can build documentation in various formats but the current implementation is very coarse-grain: we either build all possible docs or no docs at all. It would be relatively easy
to add more fine-grain documentation targets and modes. If someone could design/describe the requirements in a ticket that would be great.
Cheers,
Andrey

Subject: RE: Building the docs, again
It is quite confusing that we can be setting the same variable to different values in different places. It would also be quite helpful if we modified the Makefile to say `documentation build target is disabled` or some such, rather then going ahead and building
the whole of GHC, only at the end to inform me that it doesn't know what is `html`.

Hello,
never mind, I figured it out---apparently the build targets were disabled for the `quick` flavor, which I was using.
