I think you need to upgrade to cabal-install 1.18 or later, and then recompile your entire package database. Johan wrote about this on Google+:

Except I'm not using cabal-install, I'm using my system's (source-based) package manager, which uses runhaskell Setup under the hood. And yes, it's Cabal-1.18. Since these are all packages being built on the system level, I'm pretty sure it's not using any old versions of libraries built by cabal-install-1.16.

I've been trying to update the various Haskell packages for Exherbo, but for some packages I keep getting errors like this (taken from vector-th-unbox, which is ultimately needed by criterion):

runhaskell Setup copy

--destdir=/var/tmp/paludis/build/dev-haskell-vector-th-unbox-0.2.0.2/image/ Installing library in

/var/tmp/paludis/build/dev-haskell-vector-th-unbox-0.2.0.2/image/usr/lib64/x86_64-linux-ghc-7.8.2/vector-th-unbox-0.2.0.2 Setup: Error: Could not find module: Data.Vector.Unboxed.Deriving with any suffix: ["dyn_hi"] in the search path: ["dist/build"]

When trying to find solutions for this, every result happens to be for Windows... which this isn't. Has some way of dealing with building packages using just runhaskell Setup changed?
