Hi all,
Since the recent gmp/ghc upgrades in Arch, I get an error trying to build haskell packages on i686. For example, haskell-binary:
$ cd /var/abs/local/haskell-binary && makepkg ... ==> Starting build()...
Setup.hs:3:7: Could not find module `Distribution.Simple': Use -v to see a list of the files searched for. ==> ERROR: Build Failed. Aborting...
...
Any thoughts on the missing module error?
It looks like the Cabal library is no longer correctly installed. It should be provided by ghc though.
What's the output for ghc-pkg list?
