        <pre wrap="">Hi,

@Bodigrim is working on a patch (<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://phabricator.haskell.org/D4212">https://phabricator.haskell.org/D4212</a>) 
to fix #14170.

The build fails because of interface file errors: "bad interface file" 
for GHC.Natural and "failed to load interface" for GHC.Types.

I suspect it is a wired-in module build ordering issue but I haven't 
been able to help fixing it. If anyone with more insights could help it 
would be much appreciated!

</pre>
      </blockquote>
      <pre wrap="">Can you paste the full error? What module is failing to compile? Which
definition is it loading the interface for?

Cheers,

- Ben

It fails in the CoreTidy pass.


I also got this one (only after a make clean IIRC):
<span class="transaction-comment" data-sigil="transaction-comment" data-meta="0_43"><pre class="remarkup-code">libraries/base/GHC/Exception/Type.hs-boot:1:1: error:

    There are files missing in the ‘ghc-prim-0.5.2.0’ package,

    Use -v to see a list of the files searched for.


@hvr suggests it could could related to hs-boot files dependencies.
