Thanks for mentioning the issue, though. I don't use Haskell myself, so cabal-install was pulled in as a dependence, and of course I ran into the same build issue. Maybe the PKGBUILD could catch the process failure and at least provide an error message to suggest update cabal?

mikecr: You know, working on the latest, I had some other weirdness happen. Now not sure if what you're seeing wasn't part of that. For now I removed 'cabal-dev update' from the build() function. But everybody do 'cabal update' before building this, like you'd do a 'pacman -Sy' to freshen up, same idea.

mikecr: If your cabal package list was old, this can happen. It's just like having stale pacman lists and needing to do an -Sy Bearing that in mind, I'm not sure if it's appropriate for me to make the build do a `cabal update` automatically. We generally don't automate that part of these tools, I guess so as to not hammer servers with it unnecessarily. What do you guys think?

Howdy, if anyone is having troubles with this building this and is getting You are using a version of cabal-install that has the --only-dependencies flag to the install command. Invoking that instead... Resolving dependencies... cabal: Could not resolve dependencies: trying: epub-tools-2.1.1 ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build(). Aborting... ==> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build epub-tools. I ran cabal update and then tried again and it was fine. I don't really know why this is... I was using cabal-dev-git from AUR.
