Problem description

Currently, Mason uses Cabal to install the Haskell Language Server, and Stack to install haskell-debug-adapter.

To my understanding, Stack is a superset of Cabal, so it would be better to just use one package manager instead of two to work with the Haskell ecosystem.

This fragmentation can lead to confusions like in this issue, where debugging is even harder since both package managers are not present in the checkhealth.

Expected behavior

haskell-debug-adapter installed with Cabal.

Affected packages

haskell-debug-adapter
