Description of problem:

This is a package configuration problem, not a coding one. Here's a typical
output line from a "dns --best update" run:

Error: nothing provides ghc(base-4.7.0.2-cb23b5265b6e147094c0cd9ac819acb1)
needed by alex-3.1.3-1.fc22.x86_64.

(See the "Actual results" section for a few more lines.)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.0.5 trying to update to 3.1.3

How reproducible: Every time


Steps to Reproduce:
1.run (as su)  "dns --best update"
2.
3.

Actual results:
# dnf --best  update

Expected results:
No errors

Additional info:
This is, of course, a problem for all the Glasgow Haskell programs in the
repository. I just picked Alex to "flag" because it's the first program listed.
