Saturnin-0.1.0.1 fails its test suite

[peti]

Citing from http://hydra.cryp.to/build/862105/log/raw:

Test suite documentation: RUNNING...
documentation: cabal: readCreateProcess: runInteractiveProcess: exec: does not exist (No such file or directory)
Test suite documentation: FAIL

Apparently, the test suite assumes that cabal-install is installed, but that's not the case in our build environment. If the package relies on a certain build tool being available, then that dependency must be declared in a Build-Tools: attribute of the test suite stanza.

I see. Comes from our tests/Haddock.hs.

But how come you get an error and I don't in my setup?

It fails to build for me when I put there either "cabal" or "cabal-install". It appears build-tools is matched against an internal registry so cabal knows how to handle it.
