* Tue Jan 31 2023 Peter Simons - Update to GHC version 9.4.4.
* %{buildroot}%{ghclibdir}/include is apparently no longer used by the RTS package. Those files now live in /usr/lib64/ghc-9.4.4/rts/include.
* find %{buildroot}%{ghc_html_libraries_dir} -name LICENSE -exec rm \'{}\' \';\' no longer works because the directory doesn\'t exist at the time that command is run.
* The user manual and Haddock documentation is installed into a different location. For now, we just list the catchall %{_docdir}/packages/ghc to accept anything.
* The LICENSE file for Cabal-syntax lives at libraries/Cabal/Cabal-syntax instead of the expected place libraries/Cabal-syntax.
* The package system-cxx-std-lib has no LICENSE file. It\'s not even a proper package, it\'s just a configuration file that lists some compiler and linker flags. To work around the build error that causes, we just copy some random LICENSE file into the place where our build would expect it.
