Hello all,

I just stumbled upon <https://github.com/acowley/cabbage>https
<https://github.com/acowley/cabbage>:// <https://github.com/acowley/cabbage>
github.com <https://github.com/acowley/cabbage>/
<https://github.com/acowley/cabbage>acowley
<https://github.com/acowley/cabbage>/cabbage
<https://github.com/acowley/cabbage> which builds nix packages from cabal
files.

Maybe their approach can help you decide how to deal with the cache?
