Kabbalah cannot read bytes with bytes, with ghc 7.4.1

Question

I just upgraded from GHC 7.2.2 to 7.4.1 on 32-bit Linux. Installation went fine, but cabal-install is not happy:

$ cabal update Downloading the latest package list from hackage.haskell.org $ cabal install repa Resolving dependencies... cabal: Couldn't read cabal file "bytestring/0.9.2.1/bytestring.cabal" 

Here is the version of Kabbalah that I run:

 $ cabal --version cabal-install version 0.10.2 using version 1.10.1.0 of the Cabal library 

Thanks!

There's a workaround: http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/haskell-cafe/2012-February/099077.html

Answer 2

run this after running cabal update :

 tar -f ~/.cabal/packages/hackage.haskell.org/00-index.tar --delete bytestring/0.9.2.0 tar -f ~/.cabal/packages/hackage.haskell.org/00-index.tar --delete bytestring/0.9.2.1
