Comment (by td123):

 Replying to [comment:7 hvr]:
 > Strange, `transformers` and `hoopl` shouldn't be in that list (i.e. as
 mentioned earlier in this ticket, only `haskeline`,`terminfo`, and `xhtml`
 are problematic), as those are actually needed by the `ghc` package (and
 they will show up in `ghc-pkg list` for a properly performed GHC
 installation)

 Ah, this is my fault for looking at the list of files installed. If we are
 only talking about {{{ ghc-pkg list }}} then I get the following lines on
 a fresh install:

 {{{
 /usr/lib/ghc-7.8.2/package.conf.d
    Cabal-1.18.1.3
    array-0.5.0.0
    base-4.7.0.0
    bin-package-db-0.0.0.0
    binary-0.7.1.0
    bytestring-0.10.4.0
    containers-0.5.5.1
    deepseq-1.3.0.2
    directory-1.2.1.0
    filepath-1.3.0.2
    ghc-7.8.2
    ghc-prim-0.3.1.0
    haskell2010-1.1.2.0
    haskell98-2.0.0.3
    hoopl-3.10.0.1
    hpc-0.6.0.1
    integer-gmp-0.5.1.0
    old-locale-1.0.0.6
    old-time-1.1.0.2
    pretty-1.1.1.1
    process-1.2.0.0
    rts-1.0
    template-haskell-2.9.0.0
    time-1.4.2
    transformers-0.3.0.0
    unix-2.7.0.1
 }}}

 So I guess the only problems I actually have are the hoopl and transformer
 packages.
