The affected packages having FilePath instead of filepath in their dependency lists are:

Yes, unfortunately I originally picked the name FilePath, but all the standard GHC packages follow the filepath convention, hence it got modified. I strongly suggest that upper case letters be banned from Cabal packages, or this is going to happen again and again.
As I understand it the problem was actually that you had filepath.cabal (lowercase) containing "name: FilePath" (mixed case) (it might have been the other way round), which upsets hackage as they don't match. FWIW, Cabal and Win32 are examples of non-lower-case core libraries. Thanks Ian
