Win32 missing

Description

I have uploaded a package to Hackage but it had a build failure:

cabal-setup: At least the following dependencies are missing: Win32 -any

If Win32 library is missing, all packages with Win32 as dependency will have a build failure.

I guess the Win32 build failure is the source of the problem. Although, its documentation is well built (manually, I guess).

In my computer, the package installs correctly, because Win32 comes with the Haskell Platform. But, in my opinion, online documentation should work fine.

Thanks in advance.

There's not a lot we can do about this at the moment. The Win32 packages only exists on Windows, the unix package only exists on Unix. The current hackage buildbot only runs on Unix hence the problem. In the new hackage-server it allows multiple buildbots so this problem will not exist.
