>This module deals with registering and unregistering packages. There are a
 couple ways it can do this, one is to do it directly. Another is to generate
 a script that can be run later to do it. The idea here being that the user
 is shielded from the details of what command to use for package registration
 for a particular compiler. In practice this aspect was not especially
 popular so we also provide a way to simply generate the package registration
 file which then must be manually passed to <TT
>ghc-pkg</TT
>. It is possible to
 generate registration information for where the package is to be installed,
 or alternatively to register the package inplace in the build tree. The
 latter is occasionally handy, and will become more important when we try to
 build multi-package systems.
</P
><P
>This module does not delegate anything to the per-compiler modules but just
 mixes it all in in this module, which is rather unsatisfactory. The script
 generation and the unregister feature are not well used or tested.
