Comment(by AndreasVoellmy):

 It looks like the reason that my package tried to install unix-2.6.0.0 was
 that my cabal specified  "bytestring >= 0.10.0.1"  in build-depends field.
 I don't seem to really need that, so I can fix the problem by deleting
 that constraint.  So this seems to be mainly user error, although fixing
 the dependency in the way that MtnViewMark's last comment suggests may
 have helped me find the problem earlier.
