Hello, this looks like the upper bound on persistent-template in stack is too lax, and should be persistent-template < 2.7.0 (see yesodweb/persistent#885). Thanks for reporting!

The code will need changing, too (but I'll try to get hackage fixed first).

@borsboom Would you add the upper bound as a hackage revision?

Done, in both pantry and stack.

I'll try to get a fix to support persistent-template-2.7.x onto hackage as well, but that might take a bit longer.

[dbaynard]

I'm going to close, then. Thanks!

(@jwaldmann please reopen if this doesn't fix your issue)

[borsboom]

I've uploaded new pantry and stack packages that support building with persistent-template-2.7.x

I have this exact issue currently when running cabal v2-install stack:

% cabal --version
cabal-install version 3.2.0.0
compiled using version 3.2.0.0 of the Cabal library

% ghc --version
