You should try to cabal install $FAILED_DEPENDENCY (not an actual env variable), and you will often get more informative error messages - some packages require non-haskell dependencies (take gtk3, for instance) which cabal doesn't know how to handle at this point, because that would require some cross platform foo (cabal install runs on Windows and OSX, which don't have native package managers at all). + +@Paul - It looks like you ran into a bug, because http-client no longer depends on network>=2.6, it now can take network 2.4 - 2.6 or 2.6 or greater.

It's obvious since you are attempting to build this from source that you are either interested in haskell or you are only interested in the development of git-annex. Either way, it would behoove you to read that book. It is short, full of great examples, and it even has pleasant illustrations.
