I got the following error (on Linux):

$ make /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lHSghc-boot-th-8.0.1 collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [utils/ghc-pkg/dist/build/tmp/ghc-pkg] Error 1

Very interesting. This must be quite a intermittent issue since I have not once been able to reproduce it and Karel claimed the patch I merged fixed it. Yet, Herbert noticed that the patch is actually subtly wrong.

Does the attached patch fix the issue?

No, the patch didn't fix the issue.

Alright, thanks for the update. We're looking into the issue. Cheers, - Ben
