GHCup: Because #Haskell apparently needs a package manager for its various package management systems.

I'm an idiot.
I was trying to install #Haskell on a machine and thought the installer was taking a really long time. In my defense, the last line of text was:
Installation may take a while.
It sat at this stage for over an hour while I did other stuff, because I hadn't bothered to read the previous line:
Press ENTER to proceed or ctrl-c to abort.

It's not you, it's bad design. The prompt should always be the final line of output.

Did #Haskell at some point make defining a module without an explicit list of names to be exported illegal? It's yelling at me when I try to do this now.

I noticed a while ago that they added a warning for that but it would still compile, but I wouldn't be completely surprised if it were an error now.
It's actually annoying in ghci because the warning gets repeated every time you define something.

@Jeremy List No, it's still just a warning. I was using the
--pedantic
flag though (which turns warnings into errors).Jeremy List likes this.

@Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. It's not so much the SQL part that's the irritating bit. It's that it doesn't really mesh super well with "the Haskell way of doing things".

@BoydStephenSmithJr understandable. There's always a tension between "pleasant for the Haskeller" and "pleasant for the DBA" (or general SQL knower). We have the same problem at work (we sacrificed our DBA and used https://flora.pm/packages/@hackage/hpqtypes-extras and its eDSL)
