The virtual package ghc-ghci is only provided by architectures that support the interpreter. If you would do "apt-cache show ghc" on s390x, it will _not_ Provide ghc-ghci. This way we conveniently prevent packages using Template Haskell and similar stuff from being attempted on architectures where that is not supported.
