[Haskell-cafe] Haskell Platform on Windows - cabal update problems.

I've installed recent Haskell Platform and tried to wrap my head around cabal to finally figure out how to use it. First thing I bumped into is that cabal.exe does not know about any remote repositories, even about hackage. So after googling I found that I should add a line "remote-repo: hackage.haskell.org:http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive" into my cabal config file. So I did. And now I have "cabal update" command trying to download packages list from hackage. To no avail. Now it gives me even more interesting error: "cabal.EXE: fromFlag NoFlag. Use fromFlagOrDefault" Googling doesn't help here. What does it mean and how to get rid of it?
