This package indirectly depends on multiple versions of the same package

Building of a Haskell package may fail with this warning, for example:

Warning:                                                        
    This package indirectly depends on multiple versions of the same package. This is very likely to cause a compile failure.
      package zip-archive (zip-archive-0.3.2.5) requires binary-0.8.5.1 
      package text (text-1.2.3.0-KxYk6CmPvaH54OGfWxUXPi) requires binary-0.8.5.1-2jjzTJ14Adx8SkxPTQoTtW
      package binary (binary-0.8.5.1) requires containers-0.5.10.2
      package zip-archive (zip-archive-0.3.2.5) requires containers-0.5.11.0-74jiVtUSISeGR33AtpmPdk
      package binary (binary-0.8.5.1-2jjzTJ14Adx8SkxPTQoTtW) requires containers-0.5.11.0-74jiVtUSISeGR33AtpmPdk

How serious is it? Why does Nix care? I suspect Stack just ignores this.

P. S. I am aware this is not specific to Haskell packages, I saw similar issues with C libraries (not with Nixpkgs), e. g. with libpng, when not all consumers had migrated.

Well, the real problem was fixed in haskell generic-builder: Fix setup depends · NixOS/nixpkgs@eeeaab8 · GitHub

It is possible in fact to override core packages, but then one needs to override other core packages that depend on the override ones. For example, I needed new containters, I overrode it and binary as well.
