Description
E.g. `cabal outdated` does not alert me that `hspec-discover-2.10` is out of bounds for `github`:
https://github.com/haskell-github/github/blob/d9ac0c7ffbcc720a24d06f0a96ea4e3891316d1a/github.cabal#L219
Context:
- https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stackage/issues/6573
Update: Reproducer (2023-10-19, untested, might need small corrections).
```
cabal get github-0.29
cd github-0.29
sed -i 's/2.12/2.10/g' github.cabal
cabal outdated
```
Expected this to complain about outdated `hspec-discover`, but it does not.
