'How do I get the location of linkable libraries in GHC?

I'm working on a project that produces a shared object (.so) file. The source code is in both C and Haskell. It needs to be linked with libraries for the GHC Runtime System and for the Hint Haskell module.

Currently, the command to compile the file is:

ghc -Weverything -Werror -fforce-recomp $^ -o $@ -dynamic -shared -lHSrts-ghc8.10.5 -lHShint-0.9.0.4-7GR8UnOuwIbHNCqCSHKCK0-ghc8.10.5

There must be a way to automate the finding of the libraries instead of hard-coding the names. I want the Makefile to continue to work with future releases of GHC and Hint. It seems to be that ghc-pkg should be able to provide this, but I can't find how.

haskell cabal
