Huh,
So this is a bug I thought I dealt with :/
In the short term, I've found that often simply trying the build again can fix it. This is a dependency issue that I don't 100% understand.
For some more technical background, the "InfoTableProf" module is only built/needed when it is used with PROFILING. It uses CPP to "peek" into the StgInfoTable, which changes under profiling.
My impression is that dependency resolution decides that module isn't necessary, so then it is missing when it goes to use it. Again, I am not sure here, that's just what seemed to be the issue.
Best,

Howdy,
I am unable to build the latest revision of GHC on NixOS. I can build older revisions. Here's my error:

For reference, here's my shell.nix:
{ nixpkgs ? import <nixpkgs> {}, compiler ? "ghcHEAD" }:
let inherit (nixpkgs) pkgs; ghc = pkgs.haskell.packages.${compiler}.ghc; in with nixpkgs; lib.overrideDerivation ghc (drv: { name = "ghc-dev"; nativeBuildInputs = drv.nativeBuildInputs ++ [ arcanist git python36Packages.sphinx texlive.combined.scheme-basic ]; })
Any help would be appreciated.
