* cc: conal (added) Comment: I just ran into this same issue while 'cabal install'ing highlighting- kate-0.2.9 with 32-bit ghc 7.0.2 on Mac OS 10.6.6. Is there an up-to-date recommendation for this problem? {{{ bash-3.2$ pwd /Users/conal/cabal/highlighting-kate-0.2.9 bash-3.2$ cabal install Resolving dependencies...
