The repo is pretty standard: in a src/ directory, it contains 7 files, of which 6 are executables with 'module Main where' headers. The cabal file looks like this: http://hpaste.org/5239 {{{ name: xmonad-utils version: 0.1 homepage: http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Xmonad-utils synopsis: A small collection of X utilities description: A small collection of X utilities useful when running XMonad. It includes: hxsel, which returns the text currently in the X selection; hslock, a simple X screen lock; hmanage: an utility to toggle the override-redirect property of any window; and hhp, a simple utility to hide the pointer, similar to unclutter. category: System license: BSD3 license-file: LICENSE author: Andrea Rossato maintainer: andrea.rossato@unibz.it build-depends: base>=2.0, X11>=1.3, ghc>=6.8, unix, random>=1.0 build-type: Simple tested-with: GHC==6.8.2 extra-source-files: src/Heval.hs, src/Hhp.hs, src/Hmanage.hs, src/Hxput.hs, src/Hxsel.hs, src/Utils.hs executable: hxsel main-is: Hxsel.hs hs-source-dirs: src/ ghc-options: -funbox-strict-fields -O2 -Wall -optl-Wl,-s ghc-prof-options: -prof -auto-all executable: hxput main-is: Hxput.hs hs-source-dirs: src/ ghc-options: -funbox-strict-fields -O2 -Wall -optl-Wl,-s ghc-prof-options: -prof -auto-all executable: hslock main-is: Hslock.hsc other-modules: Hslock extensions: ForeignFunctionInterface hs-source-dirs: src/ ghc-options: -funbox-strict-fields -O2 -Wall -lcrypt -optl-Wl,-s ghc-prof-options: -prof -auto-all executable: hmanage main-is: Hmanage.hs hs-source-dirs: src/ ghc-options: -funbox-strict-fields -O2 -Wall -optl-Wl,-s ghc-prof-options: -prof -auto-all executable: hhp main-is: Hhp.hs hs-source-dirs: src/ ghc-options: -funbox-strict-fields -O2 -Wall -optl-Wl,-s ghc-prof-options: -prof -auto-all executable: heval main-is: Heval.hs hs-source-dirs: src/ ghc-options: -funbox-strict-fields -O2 -Wall -optl-Wl,-s ghc-prof-options: -prof -auto-all }}} {{{ gwern@localhost:1008~/bin/xmonad-utils>ls src Heval.hs Hhp.hs Hmanage.hs Hslock.hsc Hxput.hs Hxsel.hs Utils.hs }}} This package compiles fine, the binaries run fine, but if you should then try to create an sdist tarball, it errors and cannot find `Hslock.hs` (which is generated by `hsc2hs` from `src/Hslock.hsc`: {{{ gwern@localhost:1010~/bin/xmonad-utils>haskell cleaning...
