I relaxed to text-2.0 locally, but it is not picked up by the constraint solver. AFICT, it is because we depend on Cabal-3.6:

cabal/cabal-testsuite/cabal-testsuite.cabal

Lines 112 to 117 in a97e1f1

    
           custom-setup 
        
             -- we only depend on even stable releases of lib:Cabal 
        
             -- and due to Custom complexity and ConstraintSetupCabalMaxVersion 
        
             -- it can't be the current version 
        
             setup-depends: Cabal == 3.6.*, 
        
                            Cabal-syntax == 3.6.*,

Forcing it with -c text >= 2.0 it is used in most places, though, cabal-plan then only shows usage of text-1.2.5.0 for Cabal-3.6.3.0 then.

UPDATE: This feature would be great for my quest:

Flag to force the use of the latest allowed package #8387

	custom-setup
	-- we only depend on even stable releases of lib:Cabal
	-- and due to Custom complexity and ConstraintSetupCabalMaxVersion
	-- it can't be the current version
	setup-depends: Cabal == 3.6.*,
	Cabal-syntax == 3.6.*,

Should cabal-install use text-2.0? #8377
