I wonder about the possibility of making a simple tool to parse the output of cabal install -v3 and visualize/organize it in some sort of way to make this process easier. What might such visualization/organization look like?
The most useful information is like this (let's say someone orders "cabal install -v3 x"): will add array-0.4.999 for x-2.3's array >= 0.4.999 containers-0.4.2.1's array any Cabal-1.14.0's array >= 0.1 && < 0.5 ignoring existing array-0.4.0.0 will replace containers-0.4.2.1 for Cabal-1.14.0's containers >= 0.1 && < 0.5 change of array ignoring existing containers-0.4.2.1 will replace Cabal-1.14.0 for x-2.3's Cabal >= 1.12 change of array, containers, process ignoring existing Cabal-1.14.0 will add x-2.3 for command's x any (remark: change of process happened in a previous session and noticed now) Most of this information is not found the output of cabal install -v3.
