7.8.1 cabal install of vector package (dependent on primitive package) fails

[Vivian McPhail]

Hi,

Ubuntu 12.04, 64 bit x86, ghc 7.8.1 gives the following:

# cabal install --global vector
...
[ 5 of 19] Compiling Data.Vector.Fusion.Stream.Monadic (
Data/Vector/Fusion/Stream/Monadic.hs,
dist/build/Data/Vector/Fusion/Stream/Monadic.o )
Loading package ghc-prim ... linking ... done.
Loading package integer-gmp ... linking ... done.
Loading package base ... linking ... done.
Loading package primitive-0.5.2.1 ... <command line>: can't load .so/.DLL
for: libHSprimitive-0.5.2.1.so (libHSprimitive-0.5.2.1.so: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory)
cabal: Error: some packages failed to install:
vector-0.10.9.1 failed during the building phase. The exception was:
ExitFailure 1

Cheers,

Vivian
