The bug specifically occurs when I am installing one of its dependencies via stack: "stack install gtk2hs-buildtools". The error I get is: ghc-cabal: Cannot find the program 'ghc'. User-specified path '/home/athas/sandbox/ghc-8.2.2/inplace/bin/ghc-stage1' does not refer to an executable and the program is not on the system path. Is there some possibility that this bug is solved in the near future? (GHC 8.4.1 is just released, and I assume the problem still exists there - although I am yet to install the same on my machine.) -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14021#comment:13 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
