Re: [Haskell-cafe] --disable-{executable-}profiling cabal-install-1.22.0.0 with ghc-7.6.3

Already fixed on the 1.22 branch: https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/2313

Great, thanks! The fix seems to be allowing the use of the old flag (--disable-executable-profiling). Using the new flag (--disable-profiling) with an older ghc also apparently works, but requires Cabal-1.22.0.0 (as well as cabal-install-1.22.0.0) So I wonder: why doesn't cabal-install-1.22.0.0 require Cabal-1.22.0.0?

I've had this problem as well. I think the issue is that 'cabal' now expects '--disable-profiling', but if you have a custom Setup.hs, it can be compiled with an older version of the Cabal library, and then it expects '--disable-executable-profiling' again. What is the output of 'ghc-pkg list Cabal'?

I have 3 versions of Cabal as reported by "ghc-pkg list Cabal". Cabal-1.16.0 in the global package db, Cabal-1.18.1 and Cabal-1.20.0.0 in the user db. Do you think I should be hiding the old ones?
