How to compile git-annex?

Sat Apr 25 22:01:50 UTC 2015

I clean up all Haskell related things in my home directory.

rm -rf ~/.cabal
rm -rf ~/Library/Haskell
rm -rf ~.ghc/
cabal update
cabal install cabal-install

Then I try to install git-annex again, which shows me the following.
What I should do next?

~$ cabal install git-annex

cabal: The following packages are likely to be broken by the reinstalls:
HTTP-4000.2.19
Use --force-reinstalls if you want to install anyway.
