But it dies as below. And indeed the directory ghc-tarballs doesn’t exist. Should it? How do I get it? git clone git://git.haskell.org/ghc-tarballs.githttp://git.haskell.org/ghc-tarballs.git As described on the wiki: https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building/GettingTheSources#CloningHEAD There is an unfinished patch to make that step unnecessary: https://phabricator.haskell.org/D339
