Include cabal-install in the release
Open issues:
-
Do we also want to ship zlib and HTTP, which are dependencies of cabal-install?
Certainly we need to build them in order to build cabal-install, but we have
the option of not shipping them.
-
On Windows,
cabal.exe
cannot overwrite itself, making upgrades difficult.
