can't build starterApp with ghcjs

[p-alik]

starterApp/deploy.sh doesn't work in my environment. The first command
stack build --stack-yaml=stack-ghcjs.yaml
throws exception:

GHCJS does not yet have its boot packages installed.  Use "stack setup" to attempt to run ghcjs-boot.

Unfortunately
stack setup --stack-yaml=stack-ghcjs.yaml
ends in exception:

Booting GHCJS (this will take a long time) ...Process exited with ExitFailure 1: /home/palik/.stack/programs/x86_64-linux/ghcjs-0.2.1.9007008_ghc-8.0.1/src/.stack-work/install/x86_64-linux/lts-7.8/8.0.1/bin/ghcjs-boot --clean

ghcjs is in the directory mentioned in the exception. I added the directory to the PATH, but it doesn't help.

Any help would be much appreciated.
