Thinking about package description I wonder why the "modules" field in Setup.description is defines as a set of module names, while "main-is" is defines as file path.
Main-is must be a filepath because the module name is likely to be "Main" and the path is not derivable from the module name. The "modules" field is module names because the system is kinda smart about finding the modules, and I hope to make it smarter. Right now, it looks for .hs and .lhs files, in the future, it'll look for Module.happy (or whatever happy's suffix is) and maybe Module.hscpp. The point is that it'll look for the files and know what kind of preprocessing is necessary just by the module names. If I recall, this is what hmake does, and I like the behavior. In the future, I hope to deprecate the "modules" field for the "Simple" tools and it'll just chase down dependencies from Exposed-Modules and Main-is.
The "c-sources" also uses list of file paths. When using the module names it is easier to determine the file names. Maybe it's better to use module names only for "exposed-modules" field. I also propose to rename "modules" to "hs-sources".
So in the future, like I said, I want to deprecate "modules" a bit, but then again, I want a new field for random files to include in the sdist, like documentation. peace, isaac
