I failed to install erd on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS due to the higher version of base library required: 4.7 vs 4.5. After unsuccessful attempts to: 1. downloading latest version of Haskell Platform (no 32 bits version found) 2. installing latest version of Haskell Platform from source (requires higher versions of GHC/cabal than available in Ubuntu 12.04) 3. installing a higher version of GHC from source (requires a higher version of GHC than available in Ubuntu 12.04) I then thought of changing the requirement in erd itself (which works). I have set an upper bound for the version to the next major version, which I have read is a requirement for the package to be accepted on hackage, and have set the lower bound to the version of the base package which is installed in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. I found this information with: cabal info base | less It reads: Versions installed: 4.5.0.0 Note that a lower version of the base library would probably work as well, and this bound could be lowered further if confirmed.
