I'm trying to update the MacPorts cabal port with ghc version 8.10.1, and running in to this build problem while running bootstrap.sh:

:info:build [1 of 1] Compiling Main             ( Setup.lhs, Setup.o )
:info:build Linking Setup ...
:info:build Configuring HTTP-4000.3.12...
:info:build Setup: Encountered missing or private dependencies:
:info:build base >=4.3.0.0 && <4.13
:info:build Error during cabal-install bootstrap:
:info:build Configuring the HTTP package failed.

I see the same issue #6327 open for ghc version 8.8.1.

I'm still trying to build with ghc 8.10.2 and see this very same error.

I'm following these instructions to the letter:

cabal-install $ ./bootstrap.sh # running ./bootstrap.sh from within in cabal-install folder.

Error:

:info:build [1 of 1] Compiling Main             ( Setup.lhs, Setup.o )
:info:build Linking Setup ...
:info:build Configuring HTTP-4000.3.12...

Oh whoops, this is still using https://downloads.haskell.org/~cabal/cabal-install-3.2.0.0/cabal-install-3.2.0.0-x86_64-apple-darwin17.7.0.tar.xz

I'll wait until 3.4.0.0 is released to try again.
