  • Also: slight refactor to use only concat instead of ++ in the error message
  • Also: mention that a package.yaml file would also be accepted
    • The code that throws this is only searching for a .cabal file, but it runs hpack on the directory immediately before that to generate a cabal file, so it's effectively looking for a package.yaml file as well

Closes #3806

Note: Documentation fixes for https://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/ should target the "stable" branch, not master.

Please include the following checklist in your PR:

  • Any changes that could be relevant to users have been recorded in the ChangeLog.md
  • The documentation has been updated, if necessary. [Not necessary]

Please also shortly describe how you tested your change. Bonus points for added tests!
