Description
I use hooks in [Setup.hs](https://github.com/def-/ghc-vis/blob/master/Setup.hs) to display necessary post-installation steps for the [installation of ghc-vis](http://felsin9.de/nnis/ghc-vis/#installation). This stopped working in cabal install version 1.20 since the Setup.hs output is now only written to the log file. It would be nice if these messages could still be printed. Or did I miss something and this is supposed to be done in another way?
