+synopsis: Apply command line flags to install packages
+packages: cabal-install
+prs: #8779
+issues: #8637
+
+description: {
+
+- Command line flags usually only apply to "local" packages (packages specified
+  in the cabal.project). This change causes the v2-install command to ignore
+  that distinction to better match the expected behavior for packages specified
+  directly in the command.
