#108: Can't reliably detect missing profiling versions of preinstalled packages

------------------------------------+---------------------------------------
 When ghc list --simple says that some packages are preinstalled, we assume
 that the profiling versions are also installed. This is a bold assumption.

 Currently users would need to either install the profiling versions, or
 uninstall the package entirely, to build the full platform.
