I had the same issue, using the ghc 6.10.4 generic linux tarball on Ubuntu Jaunty x86_64. I attempted to install a newer Haskell Platform over the older one. I'm not sure what causes the issue. After several attempts to remedy it without success, I ended up completely reinstalling ghc and

Sorry for ressurecting the thread, my I'm having the same problem here. Deleting the .cabal/config file shows only temporary results, and -v3 isn't helping: ~/sources/haskell-platform-2009.2.0.2 % cabal update Config file /home/fernando/.cabal/config not found. Writing default configuration to

I got around this problem by downgrading to 6.10.3 (I think I rebuilt cabal as well) I'm not sure if the problem is with cabal, GHC, or some 64bit ubuntu library. (probably a combination of ghc+64bit ubuntu) Does anybody have ghc 6.10.4 working on 64bit Ubuntu? - Job On Mon, Aug 31, 2009 at

I had a similar problem (on Ubuntu Incontinent Ibex). I'd previously installed ghc 6.8.x, and (among other things) cabal. When I decided to upgrade to the Haskell platform, I deleted ghc but not my original cabal installation. When I got the error, I deleted my (old) copy of ~/.cabal/config

lol, yep you're right. I'd assumed the haskell platform shipped with the latest parsec, when in fact it does not :) my bad... However, I fixed the cabal issue by installing ghc 6.10.3 and rebuilding the haskell platform. Apparently there is either a compiler issue or incompatibility with 6.10.4

did you verify parsec-2.1.0.1 exports Text.Parsec.Language ? This might be a parsec 2 versus parsec 3 issue ghc-pkg describe parsec-2.1.0.1 should tell you the answer to that. 2009/7/27 Job Vranish jvran...@gmail.com: I tried updating to ghc-6.10.4 and have exactly the same error. Also

I tried updating to ghc-6.10.4 and have exactly the same error. Also ghc doesn't seem to be able to find any of the haskell platform packages, even though it ghc-pkg finds them just fine. For example (trimmed for brevity): ghc-pkg list /usr/local/lib/ghc-6.10.4/./package.conf: Cabal-1.6.0.3,

cabal -v3 update will give you a more verbose version of what is going wrong. cabal --help regrettably, cabal --help doesn't tell you this but there is always the man page I suppose. 2009/7/16 Tony Hannan tonyhann...@gmail.com: Hello, I'm on Ubuntu 8.10. I installed ghc 6.10.4 (from binary
