[Haskell-cafe] Trouble building library with cabal-install 1.24

Fri May 6 09:40:13 UTC 2016

I'm trying to use cabal-install 1.24. To start fresh, I removed ~/.cabal and
~/.ghc, and then used the old cabal(-install) executable to do cabal update
and cabal install cabal-install.

Unfortunately, it seems that cabal-install is building everything except my
library!

$  cabal --version
cabal-install version 1.24.0.0
compiled using version 1.24.0.0 of the Cabal library

$ ghc --version
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 7.10.3

$ cat cabal.project.local
tests: True

program-options
  ghc-options: -Werror

$ cabal new-build --enable-test -v
Project settings changed, reconfiguring...
