Comment (by igloo):
I don't understand; you don't seem to be using `mtl.cabal` in that
command.
When I run it I get:
{{{
Reading package info from "tmp.conf" ... ghc-pkg: 1: unrecognised field or
section: "[]"
}}}
which seems reasonable to me.
Also, note that `mtl.cabal` is meant to be used by Cabal, not by ghc-pkg
directly.
