+Hi,
+
+I just wanted to install git-annex via cabal, as described in the install document. More specifically, I did this on my Ubuntu Lucid box:
+
+ andreas@antares:~$ sudo aptitude install cabal-install
+ [...]
+ andreas@antares:~$ cabal update
+ andreas@antares:~$ cabal install quickcheck --bindir=$HOME/bin
+ andreas@antares:~$ cabal install git-annex -v --bindir=$HOME/bin
+
+However, I got this error:
+
+ /usr/bin/ghc --numeric-version
+ looking for package tool: ghc-pkg near compiler in /usr/bin
+ found package tool in /usr/bin/ghc-pkg
+ /usr/bin/ghc-pkg --version
+ /usr/bin/ghc --supported-languages
+ Reading installed packages...
+ /usr/bin/ghc-pkg dump --global
+ /usr/bin/ghc-pkg dump --user
+ Reading available packages...
+ Resolving dependencies...
+ selecting
+ cabal: cannot configure git-annex-3.20120113. It requires quickcheck >=2.1
+ There is no available version of quickcheck that satisfies >=2.1
+
+which is really strange, because quickcheck 2.4.2 is installed:
+
+ andreas@antares:~$ ls -a .cabal/lib/
+ . .. QuickCheck-2.4.2
+
+Any help is greatly appreciated :)
+Andreas.
