Public bug reported: ghc6 6.12.1-11 (the version in lucid) breaks cabal-install < 0.8.0.
cabal-install 0.8.0 is available in Debian sid and squeeze. I believe the new version of this package should be an exception to the LTSDebianImportFreeze, because otherwise: * cabal-install is not installable in Ubuntu lucid, and * there is no easy way to install most third-party Haskell libraries and programs on Ubuntu lucid. ** Affects: haskell-cabal-install (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- cabal-install 0.6 not installable with ghc 6.12 in lucid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/534478 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
