Package: cabal-install
Version: 0.10.2-3
Severity: normal
The autogenerated .cabal/config file contains:
-- username:
-- password:
-- username:
-- password:
I don't know why that is doubled, but this doesn't work:
username: JoeyHess
password: foo
cabal upload still prompts me for a password.
Looking in the source, I found an undocumented configuration that does
work:
hackage-username: JoeyHess
hackage-password: foo
(I would have reported this upstream but their BTS is broken.

I tried setting:
username: JoeyHess
password: notreallymypassword
And indeed, I get no password prompt, and the expected authorization
failure when it uses the wrong password. Based on this, I think it's
fixed.
