Hello there,
could somebody please shed some light on the following line that
appeared in my ~/.cabal/config?
remote-build-reporting: anonymous
The option doesn't seem to be documented anywhere, and I'm very nervous
about undocumented "remote reporting" features. I expect cabal-install
to communicate only to fetch the latest package index and to upload and
download packages, the former only when i actually use the "upload"
command.
If it performs any other communication, please tell me how to disable
it. In that case I'd also be interested in an explanation for why this
was enabled in the first place. I certainly didn't enable it myself,
because it would be a serious security breach in my case.
Thank you.
Greets,
Ertugrul
