And by now you know where which distro has it:

I'm sorry, Don, but you're late... Gentoo had it last night (as soon as Matthew
told me he uploaded it to Hackage)! ;-)

I'm sorry, I'm confused...

1. How is putting something into a Cabal package different from just handing somebody the source code and telling them to run ghc --make?

2. If we already have a Cabal package, why do we also need seperate packages for Arch, Gentoo, Debian...? Isn't Cabal cross-platform?

3. Why isn't any of this explained in print anywhere?
