Questions to answer:
1. where should this file be hosted? (downloads.haskell.org or this repo?)
2. which format? (should be easily parsable/sourcable by shell/awk or do we want to go for json/toml and use dependencies for parsing)
* consider that the format might be extended in the future
3. what information should it hold exactly?
* available ghc/cabal-install versions?
* latest ghc/cabal-install version?
* "good" or "bad" versions (e.g. known buggy releases) and reason
4. what is the method/process for updating this meta information file?https://gitlab.haskell.org/haskell/ghcup/-/issues/5Make fetching tarballs more robust2018-10-30T13:23:50ZGhost UserMake fetching tarballs more robusthttps://github.com/hasufell/ghcup/blob/6f70844708304c69a9da71c035b19d72ca732376/ghcup.sh#L224-L263
