The static build fails with:

error: anonymous function at /nix/store/8vsx0a840q10w0in1y8lagk2j42lik6x-patched-nixpkgs/pkgs/development/libraries/ncurses/default.nix:1:1 called with unexpected argument 'enableShared', at /nix/store/8vsx0a840q10w0in1y8lagk2j42lik6x-patched-nixpkgs/lib/customisation.nix:69:16

What to do now, @monacoremo?

I'm seeing the same error over on #2292. The immediate error can be fixed by patching static-haskell-nix with

diff --git a/survey/default.nix b/survey/default.nix
index 46d8066..a47f214 100644

                   #      `working` and `workingStackageExecutables` don't seem to need that,

but then the next failure is

error: anonymous function at /nix/store/b0bknxjr30psjc8n3xd1hp3zn4i4p9rp-source/pkgs/development/haskell-modules/generic-builder.nix:13:1 called with unexpected argument 'mkDerivation'

           70|

which I haven't been able to fix yet.

I think the issue is that static-haskell-nix needs to be updated to be compatible with the updated nixpkgs version. A way to dig into this is:

• check out https://github.com/nh2/static-haskell-nix
• make changes to build against the same nixpkgs version (hash from the aeson2 branch below):

• call e.g. nix-build --no-link survey/default.nix -A working.postgrest

That will give the same errors, at least at the start.

I managed to hack this to work on #2292 by patching static-haskell-nix: 2c24493

This upgrade has been done in #2292 (including this PR's updated openssl patch, thanks for that!).
