This may be caused by some cabal.project lying around (e.g., in the directory you are in when you are installing, but also in any parent directory) or by .ghc.environment.arch-os-version files lying around

I don't have a cabal.project or .ghc.environment.arch-os-version lying around. However, I've found ~/.ghc/x86_64-linux-8.8.4/environments/default, which contains this: clear-package-db global-package-db package-db /home/v/.cabal/store/ghc-8.8.4/package.db package-id ghc-8.8.4 package-id bytestring-0.10.10.1 package-id unix-2.7.3- f9e049162269c42fac796ce2193bc96fb95dfe3ac975de03338213cf0e37a14a package-id base-4.13.0.0 package-id time-1.12.1- 79940fa11921893814fd2d9a0f4653cb6d9b3a2de6720e03a14215ba5d4e06e7 package-id hpc-0.6.0.3 package-id filepath-1.4.2.1 package-id process-1.6.15.0- 0397a5aa0d99937f979c3ecfb8c3917000787735a4c430a5ee92c026f8987cf0 package-id array-0.5.4.0 package-id integer-gmp-1.0.2.0 package-id containers-0.6.2.1 package-id ghc-boot-8.8.4 package-id binary-0.8.7.0 package-id ghc-prim-0.5.3 package-id ghci-8.8.4 package-id rts package-id terminfo-0.4.1.4 package-id transformers-0.5.6.2 package-id deepseq-1.4.4.0 package-id ghc-boot-th-8.8.4 package-id pretty-1.1.3.6 package-id template-haskell-2.15.0.0 package-id directory-1.3.7.1- ada0557c8af940ba0586588eddbc02eb543cb70097182636c20a53c37f6c724e package-id text-1.2.4.0 package-id random-1.2.1.1- 96a066a3c9e6ce9db8a64c0229a4a92c26549367424a16852f798314b610d9ae package-id hsshellscript-3.5.0- d22730dc2a5e25b97ff191ad98a6a1517ff456eecf456231207a8e35d428732e I've tried the "cabal install --lib" commmand in /tmp, but it's the same.
which is likely if you indeed installed whole packages, and not just executables from the packages (`cabal install` only installs executables).
What I've actually called is "cabal install --lib rfc5051", sorry.
If the problem persists please file a ticket on cabal github bug tracker.
BTW, I haven't received your email, but only the response from Tom. Nothing in the spam folder, either. Strange.
Cheers, Volker
