Description:
During compilation of the "perf" (default) flavor I get this error:

/opt/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/overpic/overpic.sty: File `epic.sty' not found.
/opt/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/overpic/overpic.sty:38: Emergency stop.
/opt/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/overpic/overpic.sty:38: leading text: ^^M

Installing "texlive-pictures" fixes it. The "quick" flavor does not require "texlive-pictures". I think if "texlive-pictures" is required for the default build, they should be in "makedepends".

Additional info:
package version(s): 6.12.1-4
This task depends upon

wouldn't it be better to disable building of ps and pdf manual leaving only html version? They are on web page, so why install all three? For example following simple build.mk can be used, or existing one can be edited to add the BUILD_DOCBOOK_...=NO.

"wouldn't it be better to disable building of ps and pdf manual leaving only html version?"
O'kay, I just need smoothly building GHC. Anyway, "texlive-pictures" should be mentioned in PKGBUILD in "makedepends" or "optmakedepends" or somewhere else because this dependency is not obvious at all and someone may want to build PS or PDF.
