Yes, when cabal runs haddock on a package, it generates a comprehensive index if none is present or expands it with the new docs. Quite cool that :)

It's something I've always _wanted_ Cabal to do, but this is the first time I've ever seen it happen. I don't know what particularly I did to make this happen, and now it seems to be gone, so...

If you have documentation enabled then it is recreated every time you install a package.

(Though only for user packages, since we have not yet worked out somewhere sensible we can stick a global index).

/usr/share/doc/haskell/ ? However I think distros usually don't like un-versioned directories there... :( One thing I always find slightly irritating is that when using what seems to be the default "/usr/share/doc/packagename-packageversion", then every time I upgrade something then my bookmark links are all wrong (and my browse history is full of now-useless links). -- Ivan Lazar Miljenovic Ivan.Miljenovic@gmail.com IvanMiljenovic.wordpress.com
