We could continue to describe installing from source with the same caveats as installing from Hackage, below. That is, it only builds a single binary for the current GHC. It would be a very short section, though: cabal install haskell-language-server!

Since it doesn't include the proper suffix, not sure if we want to do that. The wrapper might pick it by accident even if the version doesn't match. But no strong opinion.

The same is true of installing from Hackage, which we do document. That's why I'm suggesting we could document it with the same caveats.

Fair point, will change it

I restored the docs with notice, but tried to minimise it in order to be not redundant.

Prefer ghcup for installations from source.
Since in the last release, the deprecation of this script has been announced, I figure it is time to pull the plug on it now, since ghcup covers all of its use-cases nicely.
One small regression: We no longer support stack for from source installations.
However, I bet it would be trivial to add something like that to ghcup if desired.
