[Haskell-cafe] Problem with publishing project/packages

[Dominik Schrempf]

Maybe I should have been more specific. I can compile the package with `stack
build`, but never built with cabal directly.

My cabal versions are:
    + cabal --version
    cabal-install version 3.0.0.0
    compiled using version 3.0.1.0 of the Cabal library

The command I use is
    cabal build
or
    cabal haddock --haddock-for-hackage --haddock-hyperlink-source

v2-build and new-build fail with the error I posted below.

v1-build fails with 
    Resolving dependencies...
    Warning: solver failed to find a solution:
    Could not resolve dependencies:
    [__0] trying: elynx-tools-0.2.2 (user goal)
    [__1] unknown package: matrices (dependency of elynx-tools)
    [__1] fail (backjumping, conflict set: elynx-tools, matrices)
    After searching the rest of the dependency tree exhaustively, these were the
    goals I've had most trouble fulfilling: elynx-tools, matrices
    Trying configure anyway.
    Configuring elynx-tools-0.2.2...
    cabal: Encountered missing or private dependencies:
    hmatrix -any, matrices -any

The package I try to compile can be found here:

Thank you for your help!
