hie-8.4.4 no longer builds

[bscottm]

Cabal can't build because dependencies are now out of sync (something must've updated in the stack-8.4.4.yaml resolver, I'm going to guess):

Warning: The update command is a part of the legacy v1 style of cabal usage.

Please switch to using either the new project style and the new-update command

the next version of cabal-install. Please file a bug if you cannot replicate a
working v1- use case with the new-style commands.

Some different approaches to resolving this:

  * Set 'allow-newer: true' in C:\sr\config.yaml to ignore all version constraints and build anyway.

  * Consider trying 'stack solver', which uses the cabal-install solver to attempt to find some
    working build configuration. This can be convenient when dealing with many complicated
    constraint errors, but results may be unpredictable.

  * Build requires unattainable version of base. Since base is a part of GHC, you most likely need
    to use a different GHC version with the matching base.

Perhaps this is related to us recently removing Cabal from the install requirements in #1184

I wonder how CI works then. Should we rebuild the caches?

I have the same issue, I'm on a Windows computer

@FrancoAra, Can you post your stack version and windows version?
Also, which command did you invoke to produce this error?
Is the project up-to-date, e.g. git pull does not pull in updates?

I've reproduced it with both stack-1.9.3 and stack-2.1.3 and executing stack build --stack-yaml=stack-8.4.4.yaml and stack install.hs hie-8.4.4.
The error with stack-2.1.3 is:

Strangely i have not ghc-8.4.4 installed but stack doesn't download it but uses the ghc system wide:

PS D:\dev\ws\haskell\haskell-ide-engine> stack path --stack-yaml=stack-8.4.4.yaml 
...
compiler-exe: D:\bin\stack\x86_64-windows\ghc-8.6.5\bin\ghc.EXE
...

[jneira]

A stack setup --stack-yaml=stack-8.4.4.yaml doesn't install ghc-8.4.4 but a stack setup --stack-yaml=stack-8.4.4.yaml --reinstall does it.
So it seems the error is triggered when you have a newer ghc (>= 8.6) in the global path.
Probably this is the cause that makes the build work in the ci env.
I have to investigate more on this but maybe it will need open a ticket upstream.

After installing ghc-8.4.4 i have not able to reproduce again the error, even "uninstalling" it again, so there must be some other factor involved. 😟
