This is because hSimpleDB doesn't specify version ranges on its dependencies, when it should. Since hxt changed its module structure going from 9.0 to 9.1, hSimpleDB doesn't build against 9.0.
You can try to build it by adding '--constraint=hxt==9.0.\*' after your cabal-install command. You can also ask the author to add version ranges to the package.
