New issue 54 by quant.co...@gmail.com: Dependency Hell
http://code.google.com/p/scion-lib/issues/detail?id=54

* What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Cabal version 1.16.02
2. GHCI 7.6.3
3. Run cabal install in the git project directory

* What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected to have a successful install of the scion server. Instead get
dependency issues.
I tried hacking the scion.cabal file by changing the version numbers but
it's one dependency issue after another.

Could you update your scion.cabal file please so the build is succesful
with the above version of ghci and cabal. Thanks.

I would say it's not actually a matter of just these versions, but a lot of
the dependencies are pretty old. The Git hasn't been updated in a year.

I got past the dependency issue, however I still wasn't able to get this to
compile, so there likely really is issues that are beyond just updating the
scion.cabal file.

I have the same problem. Scion is uninstallable, and so Emacs Haskell mode
is completely useless. Please fix this.
