Hello
y want to install from source ghc 7.10  on red hat 7
y have installed by rpm method ghc 7.6.3 on my host because for  
generate ghc it's necessary to have pre install a ghc compiler. y have  
also perl version 5.16.3 installed.

y have downloaded on https://www.haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_7_10_1  
the source distribution  ghc-7.10.1-src.tar.bz2

after tar xvf ghc-7.10.1-src.tar.bz2

y launch
./configure --prefix=$HOME

y have this error "Could not find module `System.Directory'"

my trace below, thanks for explain

$ ./configure --prefix=$HOME
