The really short version is that we now use shared libraries for Haskell
dependencies, which mostly works, except for some of the more
complicated builds.  I did fix Agda a little while ago, so I think it’s
okay now.  The issue was it couldn’t run the Agda compiler because it
didn’t know where it’s own shared libraries were before installing.  I
fixed it by setting “LD_LIBRARY_PATH” during the build.  Idris has a
similar problem, but not similar enough that the same solution works.  I
imagine PureScript is in the same boat, but I didn’t know about it until
now.  This makes me wonder about Elm, too.

Me too.  I‘ll take a look at PureScript and check Elm, since maybe the
Agda fix will work for them.  I’m not sure about Idris – it needs a bit
more effort.
