Re: [Haskell-cafe] Cabal-1.10.1.0 and bytestring-0.9.2.0 hackage problem.

Thanks! I was scratching my head at this On Thu, Aug 25, 2011 at 16:42:58 +0200, Bertram Felgenhauer wrote:

1. http://hackage.haskell.org/package/bytestring is now broken. 2. The downloadeble package index (00-index.tar) still contains the bytestring-0.9.2.0 cabal file, so the problem persists.

As a workaround, one can remove the cabal file from the downloaded index manually,

tar -f ~/.cabal/packages/hackage.haskell.org/00-index.tar --delete bytestring/0.9.2.0
