I get the same problem using `nvidia-drivers-418.56`. When I run through `opriun -v` I also get the following warning: ``` WARNING: could not set vsync - this machine's video drivers...

I found that `reconfigureUnit` runs `buildProjectTarget` with `OnlyCfg` (which turns on `--only-configure` flag). Isn't it possible to check if a project is already configured?

But it does not seem that `cabal-helper` only configures: ``` Configuring library for ghc-tags-core-0.2.0.0.. Preprocessing library for ghc-tags-core-0.2.0.0.. Building library for ghc-tags-core-0.2.0.0.. [ 1 of 13] Compiling GhcTags.CTag.Header ( lib/GhcTags/CTag/Header.hs,...

Whenever `cabal-hepler` starts it seems always re-configures even if after `cabal build all`. Is this necessary? Are there any other cache strategies? Maybe I am using the wrong tool; What...

Here's the [log](https://gist.github.com/coot/73d5cd0a584afec8b5f1050547c2beb1). Cabal cache is also invalidated after using `cabal-helper`. > it might be a good idea to look into implementing that as a GHC plugin instead. That's what...

I've seen announcement in haskell-cafe of a fork that works in all ghc-8.* versions: https://github.com/kazu-yamamoto/hhp I haven't tried it, since I am really happy with using `ghcid` which let you...

This is also a problem when one needs to release multiple assets from different build machines. Github has [get-a-release-by-tag-name](https://developer.github.com/v3/repos/releases/#get-a-release-by-tag-name) api which could be used to verify if there is an...
