#349: cabal-install always finds conflicting dependencies between base 3 and 4 on ghc 6.9 and 6.10 ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: ganesh | Owner: duncan Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: high | Milestone: Cabal-1.6 Component: cabal-install tool | Version: Severity: major | Resolution: fixed Keywords: | Difficulty: hard (< 1 day) Ghcversion: 6.9 | Platform: ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Changes (by duncan): * status: new => closed * resolution: => fixed Comment: Fixed. It no longer finds that it's a conflict. However to have it actually pick base 3 for most packages you need to modify your 00-index.tar file to contain a file `preferred-versions` that looks like: {{{ base < 4 }}} Eventually this will be in the standard index downloaded from hackage. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/349#comment:6 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
