A command line program for managing the bounds/versions of the dependencies in a cabal file.

'cabal-bounds' is able to do these things with the bounds of the dependencies in the cabal file:

drop them
update them by the library versions of the current cabal build
update them by the library versions of a haskell platform release
update them by the library versions specified by a file
dump the libraries/dependencies and their lower bound versions from the cabal file(s) into a file

For further details please consult the README.

Issues

Perhaps the currently most annoying thing is, that you have to live with the reformating of your cabal file done by the pretty printer of the Cabal library.

To only reformat your cabal file you can call `cabal-bounds format`.
