Subject: haskell: ghc-8 can't find libncursesw.so.6
Date: Sun, 15 Jan 2017 00:17:44 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87k29x6us7.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)

Hello,

Am I doing something wrong?

$ guix package -i ghc-8
[installs fine]

$ ghc --version
/gnu/store/50gn6ahfc0llldy6ggrnj1hc5wsxyfh9-ghc-8.0.1/lib/ghc-8.0.1/bin/ghc:
error while loading shared libraries: libncursesw.so.6: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory

The ncurses libraries are available:

$ ls /gnu/store/**/libncursesw*
