Description

minor but I thought it may be worth mentioning: 8.2.2 and I believe 8.2.1 ship with cabal 2.0
But threadscope uses cabal 1.24.2
Would it be possible to fix so 8.2.2 with threadscope uses one version of cabal rather than two?

Research direction

Start by inspecting ThreadScope's Cabal configuration and its GHC 8.2.2 build setup to identify where Cabal 1.24.2 is selected. Verify whether the project can use the Cabal 2.0 version shipped with GHC 8.2.2, then confirm the build uses only one Cabal version.
