When you do this, cabal will re-use Haskell packages installed by MacPorts, but those might be removed by MacPorts breaking your dependency tree. - MacPorts Haskell packages had a bug where they wouldn't be correctly uninstalled and unregistered if there were dependents registered, leaving outdated package registrations in place. While the problem has since been fixed, it seems some of those leftovers are still in place on your system. - The last two points lead to all the missing files and missing dependencies in the output of `ghc-pkg check`. You should avoid using cabal to install Haskell packages and use the MacPorts port where possible. MacPorts Haskell package upgrades might break packages installed manually using cabal. It seems a lot of the broken packages are in your user tree. Please attach the output of `ghc-pkg --global list` and `ghc-pkg --global check` so I can check whether you need to modify any packages installed system-wide or whether the problems are caused by your user packages only. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/42079#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

However, the output is identical to the one which is contained in previously attached file `"ghc-pkg--check.txt"` (I checked using `"md5sum"`...). The output of `"ghc-pkg --user check"` is also exactly identical. So the `"--global/--user"` switches don't seem to have any effect on `"ghc-pgk check"`... Outputs of `"ghc-pkg --user list"` and `"ghc-pkg --global list"` are different, though. I'll attach them. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/42079#comment:8> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
