I've been unable to avoid this error message by any other means that (a) 'ghc-pkg unregister <package>' or (b) '--force-reinstall'. So far, '--solver=modular' hasn't helped. So I'm hoping for something less aggressive. In particular, in case nothing has changed, I want 'cabal install' to succeed (exit code 0) so that my automated build & install & release processes will continue rather than get stopped.
The message appears, but building should work, with --force-reinstall and no --dry-run. Can you confirm that you've tried that?
Actually, the message should not even appear if --force-reinstalls is given. Are you using the latest development version of cabal-install from darcs? Cheers, Andres
