In a "routine" upgrade, I get the following message from several
haskell components:
* The package dev-haskell/cabal is not correctly installed for
* the currently active version of ghc (6.8.2). Please
* run ghc-updater or re-emerge dev-haskell/cabal.
So I tried running ghc-updater, and it hangs emerging haxml by
gradually absorbing all available CPU time, memory, and swap,
eventually the oom killer kills firebird, and eventually I realize
something is going on and kill ghc-updater.
Emerging haxml directly repeats the greedy performance, and when I
kill it, it gives me this message:
* The 'prerm' phase of the 'dev-haskell/haxml-1.13.2' package has failed
* with exit value -1. The problem occurred while executing the ebuild
* located at '/var/db/pkg/dev-haskell/haxml-1.13.2/haxml-1.13.2.ebuild'.
* If necessary, manually remove the ebuild in order to skip the execution
* of removal phases.
What the heck is going on here, and how do I manually remove haxml? I
know nothing of haskell; it is merged only because I use darcs. The
ebuild mentioned is short and has no "prerm" anywhere in it.
This happens on both a ~x86 machine and a ~amd64 machine.
