old-time on hackage is incorrectly packaged
old-time is missing its ./configure script:
http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/old-time
$ tar xzf old-time-1.0.0.0.tar.gz
$ cd old-time-1.0.0.0
$ ls
LICENSE Setup.hs System cbits include old-time.cabal
It needs:
$ cd ghc/libraries/old-time
$ ls
LICENSE System aclocal.m4 cbits configure.ac old-time.cabal
Setup.hs _darcs autom4te.cache configure include prologue.t
i.e. its ./configure script.
This leads to cabal install failures, for example
