Hi,
It seems as if you have also another version of GHC installed on your
computer in another directory (usr/bin/ghc), and its version is 7.10.3, and
it is considered the global version.
You could try to use a virtual environment for installing the version 8.4.3
http://hackage.haskell.org/package/hsenv
(I've never tried so I am not sure it works)
Regards

Thanks all!
Will try hsenv.
Meanwhile recipe found here was succesful:
https://www.reddit.com/r/haskell/comments/5jsyr0/announce_ghc_802_release_candidate_2/
Did
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:hvr/ghc
sudo apt update
sudo apt install ghc-8.0.2 cabal-install-1.24
added /opt/ghc/bin to $PATH
Configure done so and make is running...
