cabal new-configure does not work

[jwiegley]

I haven't tracked this down, but cabal new-configure --enable-tests fails, while cabal configure --enable-tests works just fine. It would be nice to move to the new-build logic.

These work for me. The problem was previous global dependencies installed, that removing ~/.ghc fixed.

This is what I'm seeing here:

Vulcan ~/src/hnix $ rm -fr ~/.cabal ~/.ghc .ghc.*(N) cabal.project.*(N) dist*(N) ; cabal new-configure --enable-tests
Warning: The package list for 'hackage.haskell.org' does not exist. Run 'cabal
update' to download it.
Resolving dependencies...
cabal: Could not resolve dependencies:
[__0] trying: hnix-0.5.2 (user goal)
[__1] rejecting: hnix:!test (constraint from config file, command line flag,
or user target requires opposite flag selection)
[__1] trying: hnix:*test
[__2] next goal: hnix:hspec-discover:exe.hspec-discover (dependency of hnix
*test)
[__2] rejecting: hnix:hspec-discover:exe.hspec-discover-2.6.1/installed-1hN...
(does not contain executable 'hspec-discover', which is required by hnix
*test)
[__2] fail (backjumping, conflict set: hnix,
hnix:hspec-discover:exe.hspec-discover, hnix:test)
After searching the rest of the dependency tree exhaustively, these were the
goals I've had most trouble fulfilling: hnix, hnix:test,
hnix:hspec-discover:exe.hspec-discover

I wonder now if it's because of my using direnv.
