&gt; It seems to me that the stm library that is supposed to be built into<br>

&gt; libghc-stm-dev , but does not provide libghc-stm-dev-2.4.2.1-abcde.<br>
<br>
this seems to be the result of a possible inadvertent change in the GHC<br>
source tarball creation: stm had been a &quot;extra&quot; lib already in 7.6 and<br>
before, but was not part of the tarball.<br>
<br>
Herbert or Austin, is the sdist code not doing the right thing here?<br>
