Thanks for reporting.

I can confirm cabal-install 1.22.0.1-3build1 on Ubuntu Wily lacks a manpage for `cabal`. I found a corresponding Debian bug report for this issue, so I have attached a bug watch.

The Debian bug has been resolved, and the package synced to Ubuntu Eoan. I've just verified that cabal-install 2.4.0.0-2build1 contains a manpage.
