I've been trying to install the yesod framework following the suggested steps:

stack new my-project yesodweb/sqlite
cd my-project
stack install yesod-bin --install-ghc

However I get the compilation error:

Error: [S-7282]
       Stack failed to execute the build plan.

       While executing the build plan, Stack encountered the error:

       [S-7011]
       While building package zlib-0.6.3.0 (scroll up to its section to see the error) using:....

and the rows concerning the build of zlib are

I am on Fedora 42 and have zlib and its development version installed in my system via the zlib-ng:

❯ dnf list --installed | grep zlib
zlib-ng.x86_64                                       2.2.4-3.fc42                         fedora
zlib-ng-compat.i686                                  2.2.4-3.fc42                         fedora
zlib-ng-compat.x86_64                                2.2.4-3.fc42                         fedora
zlib-ng-compat-devel.x86_64                          2.2.4-3.fc42                         fedora
zlib-ng-devel.x86_64                                 2.2.4-3.fc42                         fedora

and the zlib.h file exists in /usr/include so I'm not sure what the problem is or how to debug it further.
