[Haskell-cafe] Cabal bug?

[Henk-Jan van Tuyl]

L.S.,


I had a strange response from Cabal:
   >cabal upgrade hlint
   Resolving dependencies...
   cabal: cannot configure containers-0.3.0.0. It requires base >=4.2 && <6
   For the dependency on base >=4.2 && <6 there are these packages:  
base-4.2.0.0.
   However none of them are available.
   base-4.2.0.0 was excluded because of the top level dependency base -any

So, base-4.2.0.0 cannot be used, because any version of base is OK? Is  
this a bug in Cabal?

Regards,
Henk-Jan van Tuyl
