[Haskell-cafe] cabal: Could not resolve dependencies

L.S.,

I am trying to compile wxHaskell with GHC 8.8.0.20190721 and I get the  
following messages from cabal-install:

> cabal new-build all --disable-documentation
Resolving dependencies...
cabal: Could not resolve dependencies:
[__0] trying: samplesContrib-0.93.0.0 (user goal)
[__1] trying: base-4.13.0.0/installed-4.1... (dependency of samplesContrib)
[__2] trying: wxcore-0.93.0.0 (user goal)
[__3] next goal: wxcore:setup.Cabal (dependency of wxcore)
[__3] rejecting: wxcore:setup.Cabal-3.0.0.0/installed-3.0... (constraint  
from
maximum version of Cabal used by Setup.hs requires <2.6
[...]

What does this mean, how do I solve it?
(There is a Setup.hs in package wxcore, but does it have its own Cabal  
file?)

> cabal --version
cabal-install version 2.4.1.0
compiled using version 2.4.1.0 of the Cabal library
