undefined symbol:

I assume that GHCi wants to say the following: The instance Storable Fd
defined in module System.Posix.Poll cannot be found in the shared object
file of the alsa-seq package. That's certainly true because that module
is in the package 'poll' and not in 'alsa-seq'. But 'alsa-seq' imports
'poll'. What might be the problem?

It seems to have the idea that System.Posix.Poll is part of the alsa-seq
package.  Perhaps you have a copy of that module on the search path
somewhere, or inside the alsa-seq package?

This would confirm how I understood the linker message. Then I guess that compiling all packages at once in a single build dir with cabal was the problem. The command line was like:

$ cabal install --builddir=/tmp/dist --with-ghc=ghc7.8.0.20140228 poll alsa-seq pkg1 pkg2 pkg3 ...

After compiling the packages separately the problem has gone.
