I just got started learning Haskell. And I chose to work with it on my PC
through stack. First day, I worked with Chris Allen's tutorial
<http://howistart.org/posts/haskell/1/> and got stuck at the `stack build`
part of it. The command exited with an error as shown below:

After trying out other tutorials I concluded that this happened only when
trying to install external packages and dependencies.
Please I need help getting past this challenge I am facing, as I am very
much enthusiastic about learning to code in (and coding in) Haskell.
