stack: readPackageDb: inappropriate type

Open DanielG opened this issue 10 years ago • 6 comments 

ghc-mod: $HOME/.stack/snapshots/x86_64-linux/lts-2.22/7.8.4/pkgdb/package.cache: GHC.PackageDb.readPackageDb: inappropriate type (not a ghc-pkg db file, wrong file magic number)

Doing stack ghc -- --version on every run seems too slow can't think of a better way to do this right now.

You can make stack expose information about current resolver, including GHC version. Maybe it may write it to a file inside .stack-work.

I'm getting this error:

ghc-mod: /home/mahdi/.stack/snapshots/x86_64-linux/lts-6.13/7.10.3/pkgdb/package.cache: GHC.PackageDb.readPackageDb: inappropriate type (Not a valid Unicode code point!)

is this related?
