My guess would be that persistent indirectly depends on transformers 0.2, since 0.3 is quite new and mtl 2.1.1 doesn't support transformers 0.2. But I can't find which package that is. On May 6, 2012, at 8:46 PM, Graham Berks wrote:

Attempting

$ cabal install persistent Resolving dependencies... In order, the following would be installed: aeson-0.6.0.2 (reinstall) changes: mtl-2.1.1 -> 2.0.1.0 persistent-0.9.0.3 (new package) cabal: The following packages are likely to be broken by the reinstalls: buildwrapper-0.5.2 Use --force-reinstalls if you want to install anyway.

Any ideas what is going on ? I believe aeson-0.6.0.2 is already installed. And as far as I can tell the build of aeson-0.6.0.2 doesn't require that specific version of mtl.

Am I missing something ? Is there a way to force ghc to ignore this ??
