Cant compile HLS from source to get around GHC ABI mismatch #3849
Description
Your environment
RHEL 8
Installed everything with ghcup, on recommended versions of everything
Which OS do you use?
RHEL 8
Which LSP client (editor/plugin) do you use?
NVIM LSP
Which version of HLS do you use and how did you install it?
2.4.0.0
What's wrong?
After installing all the haskell tools with ghcup I still get the "GHC ABIs don't match!" error. I have seen from the touble-shooting page that the workaround involves compiling hls from source.
So I run:
ghcup compile hls --version 1.7.0.0 --ghc 9.4.7
as per the instructions
Which fails with the message
[ Error ] [GHCup-08841] BuildFailed failed in dir /home/.../ghcup-f3d291a7b96c187c/haskell-language-server-1.7.0.0: Process "cabal" with arguments ["v2-install",
