Subject: Haskell cabal new-build fails
Date: Tue, 11 May 2021 10:23:48 -0400

I am experiencing an error when I try to compile a Haskell program with
Cabal a Haskell build tool.

Previously I had Cabal working and was able to compile Haskell
programs.
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-guix/2021-04/msg00096.html

Now when I try to build a Haskell program with `cabal new-build` I get
an error.

`guix describe` outputs:

```

The error message:

Does the John’s message fix the issue?
