  Platform:  Linux               |  
---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
 The containers package has a test-suite section which seems to create a
 cycle when building the package. Could it be that Cabal treats the package
 as one unit instead of treating the library and test-suite sections
 separately, which should remove the cycle.
