Comment (by calvins):

 I'm unable to install 'cabal install' on a clean Ubuntu install because it
 doesn't seem to work with Parsec 3, which my library required.

 Are you able to compile with plain cabal? I checked the cabal conf files
 for the dependencies and verified that none of them specify Parsec
 2.1.0.1. They all compile fine for me against Parsec-3.0.0 as long as I
 use 'runhaskell Setup ...' to compile and install rather than 'cabal
 install'.
