描述
(Imported from [Trac #408](http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/408), reported by tphyahoo on 2008-11-16)
The natural assumption, unless you know better, is that cabal install -- and especially cabal upgrade -- will install the latest verion of a package on hackage. But the preferred-version machinery invalidates this assumptijon.
The suggestions is to emit a warning like
cabal install haxmlI would have this message pop up for both cabal install and cabal upgrade
Downloading HaXml-1.13.3...
Note: the preferred version is HaXml-1.13.3 but latest version is
HaXml-1.19, so put
Build-Depends: HaXml == 1.19.4
in your cabal file if you want that version.
See [http://groups.google.com/group/fa.haskell/browse_thread/thread/c39dca259a9489ef?q=cabal+preferred+version](http://groups.google.com/group/fa.haskell/browse_thread/thread/c39dca259a9489ef?q=cabal+preferred+version) for discussion thread.
