/home/simonpj/.ghc/x86_64-linux-7.7/package.conf.d wouldn't exist on a clean machine either. Perhaps the existence of /home/simonpj/.ghc/x86_64-linux-7.7/package.conf.d leads GHC to expect /home/simonpj/.ghc/x86_64-linux-7.7/package.conf.d/package.cache to exist.

I'm sure if you blow away /home/simonpj/.ghc/x86_64-linux-7.7 all will be well.

Geoff
