Update configuration-packages.nix files

Open jcpetruzza opened this issue 7 years ago • 0 comments

I ran into the same problem as reported in https://github.com/typeable/nixpkgs-stackage/issues/38#issuecomment-450816896: lens failing to build with a "serious configure-time warning from Cabal " error.

I think the problem is that the configuration-packages.nix being generated by stackage2nix is not up-to-date; in particular one needs to add Cabal, stm, mtl, etc. to the list of core libraries to be used from GHC.

As a workaround for the lens, issue, mtl = null; as an override fixes it.
