Sorry, but I don't understand what steps you are performing. How do you get ghc to "accidentally" install a second time?
Because `Setup.hd configure` complained `base` dependency was missing, my reflexive reaction was to install `haskell-base`. That reinstalled ghc.
After running `pacman -Rncs ghc` *everything* related to haskell development ought to disappear.
And that is what happened. I am purging everything again now and will try to avoid causing ghc to reinstall. But is it possible to fix this behaviour? Maybe there is a pacman flag to disallow a package from reinstalling if there are such installation order dependencies.
I'd also suggest you clean out any locally installed packages (e.g. via `cabal install`).
Will do.
I've just verified these steps work for me: ~~~ % sudo pacman -Rncs ghc % sudo pacman -S haskell-{unixutils,aeson,ansi-wl-pprint,mtl,optparse-applicative,safe,stringsearch,tar,utf8-string,zlib} % ./Setup.hs configure % ./Setup.hs build ~~~ /M -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: magnus@therning.org jabber: magnus@therning.org twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus
