Hello

Homebrew maintainer here. We are trying to build hopenpgp-tools 0.23.7 with ghc 9.6.2, cabal 3.10.2.0. We are getting the same error with older versions too. https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/141617

==> cabal v2-install --constraint=hashable<1.3.4.0 --constraint=aeson<1.6

      Perhaps you meant

        Text.PrettyPrint.ANSI.Leijen (needs flag -package-key prettyprinter-compat-ansi-wl-pprint-1.0.2)
      Use -v (or `:set -v` in ghci) to see a list of the files searched for.

  Error: cabal: Failed to build prettyprinter-convert-ansi-wl-pprint-1.1.2
  (which is required by exe:hot from hopenpgp-tools-0.23.7, exe:hokey from
  hopenpgp-tools-0.23.7 and others). See the build log above for details.

Looks like this dependency is deprecated. I'm not an haskell/cabal expert, so I can't really help. But an update of the dependencies would be welcome.
