[arch-haskell] "Setup: Can't find transitive deps for haddock" with Leksah

[Jonathan Lahav]

Just to let you know, I tried installing leksah through the AUR package and
through cabal and both failed for various reasons. I was months ago so I
don't remember what was the problem exactly. Manly dependencies. I gave up.

Did you manage to install it somehow?
