Looks like GHC.IntWord64 was removed in typelead/eta@6e2488c for some reason.

Yes. I wanna use yesod to develop my business system. but found too many package dependencies of yesod install failed when use etlas. so gave up at last.

I recommend using Servant which is much more lightweight (or even Spock/Scotty/Happstack) which are pure Haskell and more likely to work with Eta.

yesod-pure will take time to port since it has a lot of dependencies that use C FFI.

[rahulmutt]

foundation itself will take some time to port and I'll leave this issue open.

foundation's patch is available on Eta v0.7. Closing.
