Hey, so I am trying to compile git-annex through cabal but it fails on building uuid. It gives me this strange error:

    Resolving dependencies...
    Configuring uuid-1.3.1...
    Building uuid-1.3.1...
    Preprocessing library uuid-1.3.1...
    [ 1 of 10] Compiling Data.UUID.Builder ( Data/UUID/Builder.hs, dist/build/Data/UUID/Builder.o )

    [ 3 of 10] Compiling Data.UUID.Internal ( Data/UUID/Internal.hs, dist/build/Data/UUID/Internal.o )
    Data/UUID/Internal.hs:394:20: Not in scope: `BL.fromStrict'
    Data/UUID/Internal.hs:399:48: Not in scope: `BL.toStrict'
    cabal: Error: some packages failed to install:
    git-annex-4.20131002 depends on uuid-1.3.1 which failed to install.
    uuid-1.3.1 failed during the building phase. The exception was:
    ExitFailure 1

Any advice on how to proceed?

System is: Debian Wheezy (CrunchBang Waldorf) 64bit

versions are:
