Kevin, what version of cabal install are you using? I ask because prior to the 1.10.* version series, cabal would have a much harder time "correctly" choosing versions of dependencies, which at least for me often manifested as such confusions in caba regarding selecting versions. Prior to said cabal version the solution I'd often do is figure out what the "transitive " dependencies were, recompile them together, iterate that, and that would eventually make the problems go away.
point being: the issue is probably conflicting versions of the same libraries are being used by different libraries that are among the dependencies, and cabal is getting confused On Wed, Apr 20, 2011 at 7:34 PM, Rogan Creswick <cresw...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Wed, Apr 20, 2011 at 4:18 PM, Kevin Quick <qu...@sparq.org> wrote: > > > > With --verbose=3 this appears to be post-link running cabal-dev itself: > > > > $ cabal install cabal-dev --verbose=3 > > > > Could you send me (or post to hpaste) the complete output of 'cabal > install cabal-dev --verbose=3' ? > > --Rogan > > > ... > > > > *** Deleting temp files: > > Deleting: > > link: linkables are ... > > LinkableM (Wed Apr 20 16:14:58 MST 2011) main:Main > > [DotO /tmp/cabal-dev-0.7.4.113193/cabal-dev-0.7.4.1/dist/setup/Main.o] > > Linking /tmp/cabal-dev-0.7.4.113193/cabal-dev-0.7.4.1/dist/setup/setup > ... > > *** Linker: > > ...[verbose GCC output elided]... > > rtend.o > /nix/store/l8x3fdy1r6zf441vnqa87lzsvxrjbdz9-glibc-2.11.1/lib/crtn.o > > link: done > > *** Deleting temp files: > > Deleting: > > *** Deleting temp dirs: > > Deleting: /tmp/ghc13224_0 > > /tmp/cabal-dev-0.7.4.113193/cabal-dev-0.7.4.1/dist/setup/setup configure > > --verbose=3 --ghc --prefix=/home/kquick/.cabal --user > --flags=-build-tests > > --flags=-no-cabal-dev > --extra-include-dirs=/home/kquick/.nix-profile/include > > --extra-lib-dirs=/home/kquick/.nix-profile/lib --constraint=Cabal > ==1.10.1.0 > > --constraint=HTTP ==4000.1.1 --constraint=base ==4.2.0.2 > > --constraint=bytestring ==0.9.1.9 --constraint=directory ==1.0.1.1 > > --constraint=filepath ==1.1.0.4 --constraint=mtl ==2.0.1.0 > > --constraint=network ==2.3.0.2 --constraint=pretty ==1.0.1.1 > > --constraint=process ==1.0.1.3 --constraint=tar ==0.3.1.0 > --constraint=zlib > > ==0.5.3.1 > > cabal: Error: some packages failed to install: > > cabal-dev-0.7.4.1 failed during the configure step.
