[Haskell-cafe] have anyone tried GHC 7.0.2

ghc-pkg list returns these:

ghc-pkg check returns this:

There are problems in package network-2.2.1.10:
  dependency "parsec-3.1.1-583092e3fd1a17b79365b197467a185d" doesn't exist

The following packages are broken, either because they have a problem
listed above, or because they depend on a broken package.
network-2.2.1.10


I installed parsec and network  via cabal. Do you know how can I remove
network-2.2.1.10 that is not needed because a higher version exists. 

Should I delete anything under ~/.ghc and ~/.cabal, and reinstall ghc
and cabal-install, and those pacakges installed before using cabal?

Thanks for your link of the Haskell-platform. I will wait for the
official release and hope it will be soon.
