upgrade installed problem

[Shawn Protsman]

I just upgraded to 1.8 this morning. A problem arose around ghc.  
Something I am using must be dependent upon it:

Error: Problem while installing ghc

=====================

I cannot proceed with other updates due to this problem? Suggestions  
on how I can resolve it?

Thanks,
