When installing package haskell-src-exts via cabal install, I get the error

However, when manually installing
runhaskell Setup.hs configure/build/install
It works fine Somehow package base is not available in cabal.. don't know why.
I think what this really means is that "cabal install" is using base-3 whereas direct installation is using base-4, or vice versa. dcoutts or the haskell-src-exts maintainer would have to tell you what to do about it though. -- brandon s. allbery [solaris,freebsd,perl,pugs,haskell] allbery@kf8nh.com system administrator [openafs,heimdal,too many hats] allbery@ece.cmu.edu electrical and computer engineering, carnegie mellon university KF8NH
