(Which is because Cabal does not use the installed Cabal lib to build itself, it bootstraps from its own source code.) > Setup.hs:2:0: > Warning: Deprecated use of `defaultUserHooks' > (imported from Distribution.Simple): > Use simpleUserHooks or autoconfUserHooks > Setup: /usr/local/lib/Cabal-1.3.6/ghc-6.8.2.20080225/HSCabal-1.3.6.o: > unknown symbol `directoryzm1zi0zi0zi0_SystemziDirectory_a9_closure' > Setup: exception :: GhcException > > Any ideas? My first suggestion would be to clean and rebuild your development version of Cabal. Once it's re-registered, see if "ghci -package Cabal" works.
