I think two things are necessary in this case: 1. Upgrade GHC to get the GHC package to depend on the same Cabal as yi. 2. Reinstall the dependencies making sure mtl >= 2 is selected. Use "--constraint 'mtl >= 2.0.0'" as a parameter to cabal.
There might be a workaround to having to reinstall GHC. -Corey O'Connor coreyocon...@gmail.com http://inebriatedrobot.com/ On Fri, Mar 25, 2011 at 9:47 AM, Tony Miller <mcfiredr...@gmail.com> wrote: > Great work.
