Glad to hear the documentation led in you in the right
direction. Would've been even better if the whole thing worked without a
hitch :)

The cabal database needs to contain the package that you want. I see
little harm in running cabal v2-update often if we specify the version
number anyway.

ShellCheck cabal files is a bit creative so we have to give
cabal-bundler a hint about the executable name.
% cabal-bundler --openbsd ShellCheck-0.7.2 --executable shellcheck

Very cool, thanks for testing.
Thanks
