 I have listed my Hackage username and password in my cabal config:

 `/home/bas/.cabal/config`:
 {{{
 username: BasVanDijk
 password: **********
 }}}

 Previously this enabled me to `cabal upload` packages to Hackage without
 entering my credentials. However the new `cabal-install` requests my
 credentials.

 {{{
 $ cabal --version
 cabal-install version 0.10.2
 using version 1.10.1.0 of the Cabal library
 }}}
