Odd. base is listed as a dependency for directory-1.0.0.3. And if you 
already have directory-1.0.0.3, it shouldn't be rebuilt - except if it's in 
your user package-db and you're trying to make a global install of 
haskelldb-hsql-sqlite3.
Which GHC version are you running, and on which OS? (That might or might 
not be relevant.)

First, run "ghc-pkg check" to see whether some of your installed packages 
are broken. If none are, try "cabal install -v haskelldb-hsql-sqlite3", 
perhaps a verbose run would make it clearer what went wrong - or, try 
installing directory-1.0.1.0 and then haskelldb*
