What will happen to haskell-platform.cabal?
It is generated as part of the build process and is included in the source tarball. See cabalFileRule in SourceTarball.hs https://github.com/haskell/haskell-platform/blob/new-build/hptool/src/Source... . It was much easier to generate the .cabal file from a richer description of how the packages that make up the platform are included than to derive that information from comments in the .cabal file like we were doing. Especially (pet peeve) because .cabal comments can only appear between directives, not one lines that are within directives. - Mark
