When Cabal warns you that this will break stuff it actually means it. :) My
suggestion is that you
rm -rf ~/.ghc/x86_64-linux-7.6.1 # or equivalent on your system.
Then reinstall all the packages you want by listing them all at once
cabal install pkg1 pkg2 pk3
By listing them all together cabal-install tries to come up with an install
plan that is globally consistent for all of them.
