yes, exactly. When cabal2nix generates the 'buildDepends' field for a
package, it assumes that the camelCase naming style is used, so it's
important that all Haskell packages follow that convention for the time
being. We can convert the entire haskell-packages.nix set to the new
dashy style in one commit later (and I probably will in the foreseeable
future).
Take care,
Peter
