Since cabal 1.24 it is possible to upload documentation which is great!

However packages on Hackage that don’t have docs for some versions have still not disappeared. This is partly the fault of the Hackage build being unreliable or slow but it is also simply impossible to have a single configuration that can build all packages (just to name two reasons: a package could require a different ghc version or an external library).

I propose to make cabal upload build and upload documentation by default and add a --no-docs argument to suppress this behavior.

Edit: there is some discussion on this subject in #2080

We briefly talked with @hvr about this, and we both agree that it's a good idea.

The discussion @23Skidoo refers to is most likely #3837 of which this ticket could be considered a duplicate
