This might be heavy handed but I think I just got over this by clobbering my
.ghc directory and redoing cabal install haddock

I'm on Mac OS X Snow Leopard, and can't get haddock installed due to the following error:
Resolving dependencies... Configuring haddock-2.6.0... Warning: This package indirectly depends on multiple versions of the same package. This is highly likely to cause a compile failure. package haddock-2.6.0 requires Cabal-1.8.0.2 package ghc-6.12.1 requires Cabal-1.8.0.2 package bin-package-db-0.0.0.0 requires Cabal-1.8.0.2 Preprocessing library haddock-2.6.0...

The exception was: ExitFailure 1
When I do a "ghc-pkg list | grep Cabal" I get the following:
ghc-pkg list | grep Cabal Cabal-1.8.0.2 Cabal-1.8.0.2
I'm wondering if this means I have a copy in my .cabal, and another from GHC,and if that could be causing a problem?
I'm trying to work on the Haddock docs for the NineP package I uploaded the other day, and would rather not have to finish uploading before previewing the result :-)
