Right. cabal-install does not consider dependencies on the Cabal library, just like it does not yet consider deps on build-tools etc. Currently it only handles build-depends. http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/342 One day it might do. In the mean time update your build instructions. Note: do not add Cabal to the build-depends as a way to try to work around this inconvenience.
