I am trying to build yesod from scratch, using stack. I have a windows machine.

The first attempt was simple:

stack new yesodwebSimple yesodweb/simple
stack build

I expected it to build, but it failed.

There are several issues with windows / ghc 8.8. So I thought to try ghc 8.10. There isn't an LTS yet for 8.10, so I tried to use nightly-2020-09-19 I had to modify stack.yaml:

resolver: nightly-2020-09-19

extra-deps:
- classy-prelude-yesod-1.5.0

Now this failed too, with a strange error:

zlib                > configure
zlib                > Configuring zlib-0.6.2.2...
zlib                > build

    Process exited with code: ExitFailure 1

I don't use GitLab, and there is no C:/GitLabRunner directory on my machine. Where does this come from?

This looks like a GHC bug to me

Try to use 8.8.4

Wierd. I thought that I tried that one as well, but cannot reproduce this bug. Confusing, but it works for now.
