Description

https://hackage.haskell.org/package/helf-1.0.20240318/reports/2
```
Configuring helf-1.0.20240318...
Error: cabal-3.10.2.1: The program 'alex' version >=3.4.0.0 && <4 is required
but the version found at /home/builder/.cabal/bin/alex is version 3.2.7.1
```

We should deploy to hackage the fixed cabal-install:

Or maybe the problem is that build-tools do no not get built:
