Exactly the same for me.

Stack and Stackage (one of the package managers and library distribution systems in Haskell-land) is the best I found in any language.

Other than that I also found some tools to be lacking.

What makes you say that stack is the best you found in any language? I use it daily, and in my experience I'd put it just a bit above PHP's composer

In other package manager there is no guarantee that the libs work together. Stackage test the whole ecosystem. You use Stackage X.Y (not libA X.Y + libB X.Y, etc).

All other ecosystems there are some libs that do not work together well, and usually you find out the hard way.
