@dniku
$ stack install cabal-helper
...
Couldn't find executable cabal-helper-wrapper in directory <project-directory>/.stack-work/install/x86_64-linux/lts-8.5/8.0.2/bin/

$ find -name '*cabal-helper*'
...
./.stack-work/install/x86_64-linux/lts-8.13/8.0.2/libexec/x86_64-linux-ghc-8.0.2/cabal-helper-0.7.3.0/cabal-helper-wrapper
...

Steps to reproduce:

  1. git clone https://github.com/input-output-hk/cardano-sl.git
  2. cd cardano-sl

Output on my machine (with --verbose flag): https://gist.github.com/Pastafarianist/8ed6eec3f0d891e1fdb2def97c8a5187

Stack version

I am using stack-1.3.2 (because of #3151) which I installed from the Arch repository (sudo pacman -U https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/s/stack/stack-1.3.2-64-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz). My stack --version.
