Can't install sus with cabal

[NWuensche]

Hi,

when I try to cabal install super-user-spark, I just get

The exception was: ExitFailure 1

What should I do?

This means I made a mistake in the bounds of this package.

Try stack install super-user-spark instead, until I can fix this problem (which may not be any time soon, due to time contstraints)

It is weird that it isn't finding <> which should come from the Data.Monoid import. It's possible that you are either on a very old version of GHC (unlikely given the min-base version requirement), or you need to update your version of optparse-applicative. looking at Haddocks, I think your bounds-checks are fine, @NorfairKing.

If you are just installing stack now, you might run into trouble globally installing. In that case, pull down this repo and stack install from the project root, if you still hit a bump with the GHC version (like I did) checkout #22 and stack install again with a different lts.
