Combining databases

Hi,

I'm trying to set up a local hoogle database for code that I'm working on. I'd like it to include all my dependencies as well as my own code. I can do

hoogle generate --local=. --database local.hoo

to construct a database of my stuff, and I can do

hoogle generate --local --database deps.hoo

to construct a database of my dependencies, but I can't figure out how to do one call to get both. Calling --local without arguments is a special case in the command line argument parsing, so doing:

hoogle generate --local --local=.

fails with the error

Starting generate
hoogle: : getDirectoryContents:openDirStream: does not exist (No such file or directory)

(Note the bonus colon there -- it's trying to find the directory named "".)

Searching online for help reveals that there used to be a combine feature, but it looks like that was removed in Hoogle 5.

Is there a Hoogle 5 way to combine databases? Or, is there a better way to generate a database like what I want?

Thanks!

Start by reproducing the two hoogle generate commands and the failing repeated --local invocation described in the issue. Trace the command-line parsing and database-generation entry points to determine whether combining dependency and local databases is supported; done means a working documented path or a clearly scoped implementation plan.
