Could this file not be created programmatically from either Packages or Sources
files? If so then there'd be no need to manually update it, one could create
the file for "now" then manually tweak it for what you're about to upload and
then use it to test. Certainly I'd not like it if every hackage related upload
resulted in a cabal-install update. It'd really annoy the users for a start.
