The output of cabal build --verbose
mentions flags that are not documented in the man pages. GHC is given a flag -fbuilding-cabal-package
. ghc-pkg
is given a flag --package-db
. My guess is that the latter is a synonym for --package-conf
. Am I right? And what is the former?
--package-db
is documented in the user guide . It is indeed similar to the old --package-conf
flag, see user guide for older ghc .
-fbuilding-cabal-package
is indeed undocumented, there is a ticket about that. It is designed to be used by cabal only. It changes few compiler messages to look more clear when building package using cabal.
