I am successfully using hooks with the following in my .cabal file:

   Build-Type    : Simple

and my main in Setup.hs looks like this:

   main = defaultMainWithHooks $ simpleUserHooks        { cleanHook = profileClean        , runTests = runTestsBuild        }

I've been unable to reproduce this -- flipping the build type to Custom has been necessary in every configuration I've tried.  I'd like to see what I'm doing differently -- is this used in a publicly available package I could take a look at?

It's not ready to be made public yet, but I put together the following example: % cat test.cabal Name : test Version : 0.0.0 License : GPL Author : Magnus Therning Maintainer : magnus@therning.org Copyright : Magnus Therning, 2009 Build-Type : Simple Cabal-Version : >= 1.2 Executable test Main-Is : Main.hs Build-Depends : base >= 4.2.0 && < 4.3 % cat Setup.hs #! /usr/bin/env runhaskell import Distribution.Simple main = defaultMainWithHooks $ simpleUserHooks { cleanHook = profileClean } profileClean pd v uh cf = do (cleanHook simpleUserHooks) pd v uh cf putStrLn "** in hook" % ./Setup.hs configure Configuring test-0.0.0... % ./Setup.hs clean cleaning... ** in hook Could it be a difference in versions? % ghc --version The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 6.12.1 % ghc-pkg list | grep Cabal Cabal-1.8.0.2 /M -- Magnus Therning                        (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org          Jabber: magnus＠therning．org http://therning.org/magnus         identi.ca|twitter: magthe
