I got annoied with specifying:
./setup configure --with-compiler=ghc-6.5.20060724
--with-hc-pkg=ghc-pkg-6.5.20060724
So the first patch makes it guess better about so that this works:
./setup configure --with-compiler=ghc-6.5.20060724
The second patch is just a trivial simplification. That bit
should probably use pipes rather than outputting to a file
and then reading the file.
I didn't want to just push these changes, so can someone else
give them a quick look over and commit. Cheers.

* Be cleverer about guessing hc-pkg name and location.
So it now works if you say:
./setup configure --with-compiler=ghc-6.5
ie specifying a path-relative name rather than an absolute path.
We then look for hc-pkg in the same dir as where we found the compiler.
If the compiler appears to have a version suffix then we additionally
and preferentially look for hc-pkg with that same version suffix.
(I'm not sure that bit works if you've got a .exe suffix, perhaps a
windows person could try it / take a look)

before:

datasubdir is still $pkgid, so data files for an exectuable will be

the idea is that all executables are installed in the same directory
by default, so setting PATH is easier. Also, data files belonging to

[Better support for packages that need to install header files
Simon Marlow <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>**20060426140627
There's a new field for .cabal files:
install-includes: foo.h bar.h
This means the same as 'includes', except that the files named therein
will be installed into $libdir/include. 'includes' should only be
used for headers already installed on the system.
Directories listed in 'include-dirs' still turn into -I options for
hsc2hs, cpphs, and C compilations. However, for installation
purposes, relative directories in 'include-dirs' are now treated
differently from absolute directories:
- an absolute directory is copied to the include-dirs field
of the installed package config
- files names in install-includes are assumed to be found in
one of the *relative* directories listed in include-dirs
So the common pattern for providing a header file that you want to
be available everywhere including to via-C compilations against this
package:
include-dirs: myincludes
install-includes: foo.h
will install the header file myincludes/foo.h in
$libdir/include/foo.h.

[First attempt at a cabal-setup command
Simon Marlow <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>**20060303162233
cabal-setup is a replacement for 'runhaskell Setup.hs'. It accepts
exactly the same commands. Additionally, the following new features
are provided:
* Setup.{hs,lhs} is optional. If omitted, cabal-setup behaves just
like Distribution.Simple.defaultMain.
* If the .cabal file contains a cabal-version field, then Setup.hs
is built using an appropriate version of Cabal. This might entail
creating Setup.hs if it doesn't exist.
* cabal-setup interprets the options --with-compiler and --with-hc-pkg
to determine the compiler used to compile Setup.hs.
Later, we could add support for building multiple packages in
dependency order, as per recent discussions on [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[Implement "setup register --inplace", and a few other minor things
Simon Marlow <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>**20060425144733
There are a few changes in this patch:
- New flag to register, --inplace. "setup register --inplace"
registers the package for use in the build tree, i.e. without
installing. It works with GHC only, currently.
- The parameters to RegisterCmd, UnregisterCmd and InstallCmd are a
legacy from before the time of hooks (or something) and don't
serve any purpose any more, AFAICT. So I removed them.
- I don't think "setup register" worked propertly before if
--user was given to configure. It does now.
- New flag to register: --with-hc-pkg (just the same as when
given to configure, but lets you override it at register-time)

[cleaned up suffix handler params to hooks
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Summary if last few changes: I modified the hooks interface quite a
bit, again. There's good news and bad news about this. The good news
is that it's cleaned up and should be easier to maintain and to avoid
future modifications. The bad news is that this change itself will
break stuff, of course.
If you have any trouble building your Setup scripts, please let me
know. I really think that it was best to bite the bullet right now in
one big go instead of down the road with lots of little changes. I
have a lot more confidence in the hooks interface, and I don't
actually expect that it'll change as often.
I made the types more consistent, and made sure there are accessor
functions on each of the Flags types so that if the flags types change
in the future, it shouldn't break lots of code.
Another piece of good / bad news is that I decided not to get rid of
the pre & post hooks. They are nice for convenience and it wouldn't
be nearly so easy to write hooks without them.
That's bad because the interface to hooks is still pretty big, which
means that there's more likelihood that it'll change in the future.
Another weakness in the Hooks interface is that with command hooks
(like sDistHook) it's tempting to add parameters to them; basically
the stuff that we compute between the preSDist and sDist hook. I
removed such params and have their values computed elsewhere.
Cabal hackers, please avoid adding parameters to these command hooks
if at all possible in order to keep the interface steady. If you need
to compute a value to pass to these functions, compute it in the
function and / or make it available as a function that someone
crafting hooks can use as well, or consider whether it belongs in one
of the parameters already being passed to the hooks,
PackageDescription, LocalBuildInfo, UserHooks, Flags.
