stack-run-0.1.1.4 failing to build on linux ghc 8.2

[intronic]

Hi,

stack install stack-run fails for me with ghc 8.2.2, and its also not building with 8.2 for any version of stack-run apparently:

https://matrix.hackage.haskell.org/package/stack-run

cheers

Also fails for me on macOS High Sierra version 10.13.3.

This fails both on my Windows 10 Pro box and on my Ubuntu 17.10 box with the above mentioned error.

I second this, can't get stack-run to build globally with ghc8.2.2

I have the same problem building QuickCheck while trying to install intero for what it's wort, I had to run sudo apt-get install libncurses-dev to fix earlier errors.

fyi, or if anyone finds this thread, I found a workaround that works on macos at least: #17 (comment)
