I'm having trouble install from cabal on Debian-testing since the new beta released.
% sudo aptitude remove --purge cabal-install
% rm -rf $HOME/.cabal
% sudo aptitude install cabal-install
% cabal update
% cabal install git-annex
The output all follows this general syntax:
<package> depends on <anotherpackage> which failed to install
On the flip side, I upgrade my Debian to sid and it installed just fine through aptitude.
(Apologies for my English, and if this is simply a user error)
