+synopsis: Expose `cabal-install` as library
+prs: #7358
+issues: #7224 #6090 #4798 #3781 #1597
+significance: significant
+description {
+
+- Exposes `cabal-install` as a library, bumping the `cabal-install` cabal version to 2.2, and removing the dogfooding framework surrounding `cabal-install` to facilitate easier testing.
+
+- Moves `cabal-install-solver` out to its own directory, and treats it as its own separate project. Addresses #6090, #7224, and #3781
+
+- Enable HPC coverage
+
+  - absorb `cabal-install-solver-dsl` module into the test modules, and
+    incorporate it into its own test target.
+
+  -  Splits out `cabal-install` unit tests from long-running tests.
+
+  - Adds proper subcomponent coverage masking so we can finally generate
+    baseline coverage reports for `cabal-install`.

+### Significant changes
+
+
+- Make Paths_ modules work with non-standard preludes again [#5962](https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/5962)
+
+  - Generate Paths_ module with qualified Data.List.last import so that compatibility with non-standard preludes is not regressed compared to cabal 3.4.
+
+- Windows: redo the fix to breakage caused by new autoconf; the wrong fix made cabal sometimes fail with old autoconf [#7494](https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/7494) [#7649](https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/7649)
+
+  - Reverts #7510 that failed on Windows when used with pre-generated scripts included in packages such as network, time, process.
+  - Adds a subtler fix/workaround for the deficiencies of new autoconf versions on Windows.
+
+### Other changes
+
+
+- Regenerate bootstrap/ with GHC updated from 8.10.4 to 8.10.7
+
+  - This regenerates bootstrap plans using new package versions and also updating GHC from 8.10.4 to 8.10.7, as requested by GHC HQ.
