Description

Not sure whether this is a feature request or a bug report. I sometimes have a number of dependencies that are the same for library, executable, and test-suite. The global property 'build-depends' looks like an ideal place to put these, but any dependencies I list there seem to be ignored by cabal.

And making the executable and test-suite depend on the library does not work for you?
