#355: "./Setup.hs configure" does not find older Cabal version when a newer one is installed ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: guest | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.4.0.1 Severity: normal | Keywords: Difficulty: normal | Ghcversion: 6.8.3 Platform: Linux | ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- I tried to configure a package with {{{ Cabal-Version: >= 1.2 && < 1.3 }}} in its cabal file. "ghc-pkg list" states i have both "Cabal-1.2.4.0" and "Cabal-1.4.0.1" installed. The configuration ("runghc Setup.lhs configure") fails with the following message: {{{ Warning: grapefruit-frp.cabal: This package requires Cabal version:

=1.2 && <1.3 Configuring grapefruit-frp-0.0.0.0... Error: This package requires Cabal version: >=1.2 && <1.3 }}} After "ghc-pkg unregister Cabal-1.4.0.1" everything works.

(I stumbled upon this trying to compile grapefruit-frp (http://softbase.org/grapefruit/darcs/main/).) -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/355 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
