The problem here is that that happy package is borked because it needs happy to be able to install it. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/375#comment:4 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects

I worked around this problem by first installing happy 1.17 using the command: cabal install happy-1.17 Then I did, cabal install upgrade, and happy 1.18 installed. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/375#comment:5 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
