https://www.haskell.org/ghc/blog/20190825-ghc-8.8.1-released.html says
cabal-install users should note that cabal-install-3.0 or later is required for use with GHC 8.8.
I'm not the most sophisticated user of cabal-install ever, but it appears to me that 8.8.1 can't build 3.0.0.0? depends on base >= 4.8 && < 4.13, where 8.8.1 installs base-4.13.0.0. I'm working with cabal-install-3.0.0.0.tar.gz . It looks like it might be possible to up some of the dependencies, like HTTP to 4000.3.14, but I suppose there's a reason why cabal-install itself isn't there yet. Donn
