"stack build yesod-bin" fails on MacOS 11.0

stack build yesod-bin fails on MacOS 11.0

• Your OS name and version: MacOS Big Sur Version 11.0 Beta (20A5343i)
• The versions of tools you're using (e.g. stack, yesod ghc):
  stack: Version 2.3.3, Git revision cb44d51bed48b723a5deb08c3348c0b3ccfc437e x86_64 hpack-0.33.0
yesod: Not installing
  ghc: The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 8.8.4
• The versions of dependencies you're using: Not sure what to put here. Just trying to build yesod-bin right now.

command -v sw_vers && sw_vers # OS X only
command -v uname && uname -a # Kernel version
command -v stack && stack --version
command -v stack && stack ghc -- --version
command -v stack && stack ls dependencies
command -v yesod && yesod version

Output: https://gist.github.com/enaluz/0e19aefa37ca1b787674ae438db312d7

• Also, is there anything custom or unusual about your setup? i.e. new or prerelease versions of GHC, stack, etc: Running Big Sur Beta.

• Finally, if possible, please reproduce the error in a small script, or if necessary create a new Github repo with the smallest possible reproducing case. Stack's scripting support might be useful for creating your reproduction example:

Here is what happened when I ran stack build yesod-bin

This is unlikely to be an issue with yesod-bin itself, I'd recommend reporting the issue to GHC and see if there are any recommendations upstream.

[enaluz]

@snoyberg Thanks for the quick response. Upon further investigation, it might be an OS version issue. Will keep this issue posted as I gather more information in case it can be helpful to anyone else.

Got the same problem when installing yesod-bin
And this issue is also encountered when installing other packages.

[blackeuler]

Are there any known workarounds in the mean time?

[marciofrayze]

I think IHP is having the same issues:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/64854700/ihp-cant-load-framework-cocoa-not-found

There is a workaround in the link above, but I haven't tested it myself. Waiting for an official fix.

[popara]

Workaround involves pulling IHP repo, which doesn't help Yesod.
This might be more related:

Thanks for the comments. I've added comments to the gitlab issue that was mentioned above.

For a beginner developer like myself, this issue completely prevents me from using Yesod on OSX: The easiest solution I have seen involves monkey-patching Yekyll, which I don't know how to do. I'll update if I find an easier solution. If there's any other workaround you have found, it would be amazing to mention.

Thanks!
