Right now the bootstrap compiler is built in netbsd-8, so it depends

current (and I suppose 9 too) you'll end up with:

/usr/pkgsrc/lang/ghc92/work/.tools/lib/ghc-9.2.1/bin/ghc-pkg: Shared object "libcurses.so.8" not found

Has someone crosscompiled a bootstrap compiler for haskell in current
or netbsd-9?

Regards,
adr.
If you install emulators/compat90 you will get libcurses.so.8.

The aarch64 bootstrap will be built for netbsd-9.
aarch64 netbsd-8 doesn't make sense because that never existed.

Thanks for the clue. compat90 has other libs like libterminfo that I have been missing in 9.99.106 for the last week or so. I had given up and loaded the 9.3 release, which I will say is really good. But I can't seem to give up current, it's some kind of odd addiction...
