I'm having issues trying to get cabal-install (latest darcs) installed, as well. I'm seeing the message:
Hackage/Types.hs:19:29: Module `Distribution.Version' does not export `Dependency'
which was mentioned on this list earlier. Updating to the latest darcs Cabal doesn't do the trick, it seems:
$ ghc-pkg list /usr/local/lib/ghc-6.8.2/package.conf: Cabal-1.3.10, Cabal-1.5.2, ...
I grabbed that 1.3.10 as a tarball snapshot.
If you used the tarball of Cabal then you'd want the corresponding tarball of cabal-install that was released at the same time. Otherwise the darcs version of one requires the darcs version of the other.
The darcs cabal installs Cabal-1.5.2, and it seemed that the darcs cabal-install wanted >= 1.3.11 && < 1.5, so I've no idea what to do here :)
I'll be making the 1.4 release from this branch: http://darcs.haskell.org/cabal-branches/cabal-1.4/ which is currently at version 1.3.11 since we've not hit 1.4 yet. Duncan
