your analysis is correct, but due to the nature of how Haskell builds work
we cannot remove that file (because anything depending on ghc-esqueleto
would not build any more) or relocate it to a different output (because
that would cause a cycle).

I can’t check right now, but I’m guessing a plain `cabal install`
would also add base64-bytestring to GHC’s visible packages?

Cheers,
Lars
