+name: cabal-helper
+version: 0.5.0.0
+synopsis: Simple interface to some of Cabal's configuration state used by ghc-mod
+description:
+ @cabal-helper@ provides a library which wraps the internal use of
+ anexecutable to lift the restrictions imposed by linking against versions of
+ GHC before @7.10@. This has the pleasant side effect of isolating the user
+ from having to deal with Cabal version changes manually as @cabal-helper@
+ can simply recompile it's helper program automatically as needed.
+ .
+ @cabal-helper@ uses a wrapper executable to compile the actual cabal-helper
+ executable at runtime while linking against an arbitrary version of
+ Cabal. This runtime-compiled helper executable is then used to extract
+ various bits and peices from Cabal\'s on disk state (dist/setup-config)
+ written by it's configure command.
+ .
+ In addition to this the wrapper executable also supports installing any
+ version of Cabal from hackage in case it cannot be found in any available
+ package database. The wrapper installs these instances of the Cabal library
+ into a private package database so as to not interfere with the user's
+ packages.
+ .
+ Furthermore the wrapper supports one special case namely reading a state
+ file for Cabal itself. This is needed as Cabal compiles it's Setup.hs using
+ itself and not using any version of Cabal installed in any package database.
+ .
+ @cabal-helper@ can compile with @Cabal >= 1.14@ but requires @Cabal >= 1.16@
+ at runtime.
