Flags in local config do not override flags in freeze file

[bgohla]

Describe the bug

In my project, I have a project freeze file that has flag settings for local packages set to -some-flag. I expect to be able to override this flag in the local project config, following the precedence order given in the documentation: https://cabal.readthedocs.io/en/stable/cabal-project-description-file.html#project-description-cabal-project-file .

But when trying to build, I get a resolution conflict instead.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

After searching the rest of the dependency tree exhaustively, these were the

Expected behavior

I expect the flags specified in the local project config to override the flags in the freeze file.
