Hi Roberto,

the log that you link to seems to be for the GHC build, not HaskellDB,=20
and it doesn't seem to contain the error messages that you mention. I=20
did find the HaskellDB log with the errors at:
http://amd64.ftbfs.de/fetch.php?&pkg=3Dhaskelldb&ver=3D0.9.cvs.601-9&arch=
=3Damd64&stamp=3D1142372938&file=3Dlog&as=3Draw

I think that the stg_ap_p_ret function belongs to the GHC run-time=20
system, but I don't know what would cause the linker to not find it.
