Hi, cafe, I always get the following build failure when I try to install encoding: Configuring encoding-0.6.4... Warning: This package indirectly depends on multiple versions of the same package. This is highly likely to cause a compile failure. package haskell98-1.0.1.1 requires random-1.0.0.2 package HaXml-1.20.2 requires random-1.0.0.2 package random-1.0.0.2 requires time-1.1.4 package random-1.0.0.2 requires time-1.2.0.4 Preprocessing library encoding-0.6.4...
