This is rather odd. The mtl package uses the haskell-cabal.eclass which includes: if [[ -z ${CABAL_MIN_VERSION} ]]; then CABAL_MIN_VERSION=1.1.4 fi if [[ -z "${CABAL_BOOTSTRAP}" ]]; then DEPEND="${DEPEND} >=dev-haskell/cabal-${CABAL_MIN_VERSION}" fi ie it always adds a dep on dev-haskell/cabal. This has always worked for us in the past. Has something changed with eclass inherits? What is going on?
This is very odd. As dcoutts notes cabal is always added to packages inherit haskell-cabal. $ emerge mtl -vp These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!
