[Haskell-cafe] Copying data files when installing, using Cabal

Hi Henk-Jan,

It works for me, see for example HLint:
http://community.haskell.org/~ndm/darcs/hlint

And a blog I wrote on it:
http://neilmitchell.blogspot.com/2008/02/adding-data-files-using-cabal.html

The data files are copied in to the data directory upon install. The
data-files: bit must be near the start, not under executable/library
subheadings.

Thanks

Neil
