Shellcheck: Setup.hs is broken with Cabal 3.x

[peti]

When trying to build ShellCheck-0.7.0 with ghc-8.8.1, the build fails during the configure stage:

~
Setup.hs:6:3: error:
Module ‘Distribution.Simple’ does not export ‘UserHooks(preSDist)’
|
6 | UserHooks ( preSDist ),
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
~~

Apparently, Setup.hs needs an overhaul for Cabal 3.x compatibility.

Indeed it is. It should be fixed in the latest git version though. Can you give it a try?

I can confirm that that git HEAD works with Cabal 3.x.

I know this is in bad form, and I really do hate to do this, but is there any chance of a new release in order to close this issue in the near future?

ShellCheck has been marked as broken on NixOS and is causing evaluations to fail (see: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/commit/7ecd6958b996f2f4bc1e893285cec4ced3f3301c#comments) as a result of 0.7.0 being incompatible.

Sorry for being That Guy™.

I created PR which will remedy this until the next release

Thank you very much for the fix!
