+
+ Due to some unexpected dynamic linking problems, Haskell Cabal ports with
+ binaries that link to their own libraries may not work. With default
+ configuration, the following ports are known to have this problem:
+ Agda, BNFC, pandoc, and uuagc. (Their port revision are now bumped.)
+
+ In general, it is recommended to rebuild the port if you are
+ experiencing that the corresponding binary will not start, e.g.:
+
+ % agda
+ Shared object "libHSAgda-2.3.2-ghc7.4.2.so" not found, required by "agda"
