Note that both ghc-6.10.1 and the current darcs version of the ghc-6.10.x branch come with base 3.0.3.0. See: http://darcs.haskell.org/ghc-6.10/packages/base3-compat/base.cabal > This causes cabal install to break, as it implicitly adds > base == 3.0.2.0 which nothing has so nothing installs. There's something else going on. cabal-install does know about the base package but does not have any hard coded versions. The only constraint it places on base is that the dependency solver must pick an installed version of base (ie and not try to install from sources off hackage). > Could a new version of cabal install be released that fixes this? We'll need more details to work out what the problem is. Could you describe the symptoms in more detail. See also if ghc-pkg check reports anything.
