Hi all, I tried to install the Network.CGI module by inputting: cabal install CGI into the terminal but got this error: Resolving dependencies... Configuring cgi-3001.1.8.2... Preprocessing library cgi-3001.1.8.2... Building cgi-3001.1.8.2... <command line>: cannot satisfy -package-id network-2.3.0.2-24fdc6b92867c7236e81708f93cae7d0 (use -v for more information) cabal: Error: some packages failed to install: cgi-3001.1.8.2 failed during the building phase. The exception was: ExitFailure 1 I'm almost positive I have the latest version of cabal, and have tried many things, but can't seem to see what I'm leaving out. Thanks, William

Hi all,
I tried to install the Network.CGI module by inputting:
cabal install CGI
into the terminal but got this error:
Resolving dependencies... Configuring cgi-3001.1.8.2... Preprocessing library cgi-3001.1.8.2...

Does the command "ghc-pkg check" display anything? Which version of GHC are you using?
I'm almost positive I have the latest version of cabal, and have tried many things, but can't seem to see what I'm leaving out.
Thanks,
William

Look at the output of "ghc -v" and be very horrified. The problem is not lacking packages or being outdated. The problem is possessing too many packages and upgrading too much. The solution is nuking. See my http://www.vex.net/~trebla/haskell/sicp.xhtml for complete information and more ways to be horrified.

Once you've reinstalled, or "nuked", you can use cabal-dev to never run into this problem again: http://www.reddit.com/r/haskell/comments/f3ykj/psa_use_cabaldev_to_solve_dep... Jason
