Resolving dependencies...
cabal: dependencies conflict: ghc-6.8.2 requires Cabal ==1.2.3.0 however
Cabal-1.2.3.0 was excluded because cabal2arch-0.3.8.3 requires Cabal
>=1.3.11
&& <1.
Hmm. I can't remember what we need new Cabal for...
Ah, yes,
./Main.hs:32:7:
Could not find module `Distribution.Simple.PackageIndex':
it is a member of package Cabal-1.4.0.1,
How did you manage to build this?
