Can you save a copy of the file and attach it to a new ticket at: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ I'll look into why it's not parsing the old format correctly. Once you've done that, you can delete the file and let it re-create a default one. Duncan

I had the same problem on a Mac system, change "GHC" to "ghc" and things
will work.
I didn't even think that it was an actual bug! Ticket #379 reports the
problem.
