Adding a stack.yaml to containers, will this break anything?

[Matt Renaud]

Hey! I've recently started contributing to the containers package and noticed that its not possible to use Stack out of the box when building and testing locally. We wanted to add a simple stack.yaml file but I've only used stack for personal projects and don't know if this will affect the building of containers for Stackage. If someone who's familiar with the process could take a look it would be much appreciated. Thanks!

It will have no impact, for a few reasons:

1. Stackage doesn't pay any attention to stack.yaml files

2. Unless you modify containers.cabal, the stack.yaml file will not be included in the tarball uploaded to Hackage
