The easiest workaround is to change your local copy of the .cabal file for hsql, modifying the build-depends line to make a more precise dependency on old-time, e.g. build-depends: old-time-1.0.0.2
First of all, apologies are in order, the package I am having trouble with is haskelldb-hsql-sqlite3. hsql installed just fine, as well as hsql-sqlite3. In all of the hackage database package excitement I got confused. Here's what I tried : add old-time-1.0.0.2 to the _end_ of the build-depends line: cabal: haskelldb-hsql-sqlite3.cabal:7: Parse of field 'build-depends' failed. Interestingly, if I simply add old-time then I don't get that error but instead my good friend the "hidden package" error. I tried giving it it's own build-depends line, but adding the version suffix still gives me the parse error. ?? Brian
