As said, this is an issue with the package maintainer who explicitly used base 3.0 as a dependancy
Or they have no upper bound on the version of base in their .cabal file, so cabal-install tries to be clever and defaults to base-3 to be safe (from when base-4 was introduced and many packages wouldn't build with it). Nowadays, is there any reason why we need to consider base-3 compatibility any more? Is it viable to just use base-4 and not bother with extensible-exceptions as a compatibility layer? -- Ivan Lazar Miljenovic Ivan.Miljenovic@gmail.com IvanMiljenovic.wordpress.com
