--  While building custom Setup.hs for package komposition-0.1.0 using:

    Process exited with code: ExitFailure 1

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Clean ubuntu 16.04 environment
2. Install stack given stack instructions
3. Clone komposition repo
4. run: stack install happy
5. run: stack install

Expected behavior komposition is correctly compiled and executable placed on proper path

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Ubuntu 16.04, stack Version 1.7.1, Git revision 681c800873816c022739ca7ed14755e85a579565
• Komposition version or commit: master (234584948ccaf1d1750f2503f9d463e58929bb43)
• Build environment: stack

Thanks for the report! I noticed this problem when setting up CI using an Ubuntu docker image. It seems the native dialog is not included in the GTK+ version available in Ubuntu 16.04. I solved this by using Ubuntu 18.04 in CI, but there might be a better way for you. Perhaps you need to compile a newer GTK+ version from source, or use another PPA to get a more recent version.

Oh, and by the way, this should be added to the installation docs. If you want to submit a PR adding something that would be great, otherwise I can add it later.
