> As to the {{{--only-dependencies}}} flag. Perhaps I'm missing something,
but I think I've never actually used it. Why should it suggest running
that and not just suggest running {{{cabal install}}}?
When developing a library `cabal install` isn't not what you want, as it
would install some intermediate (i.e. unreleased) version of your library
in a place where other libraries could start using it by misstake.
