Running the command manually gives the same error:

$ cwd=/home/jaro/.cabal/store /home/jaro/.ghcup/ghc/8.10.4/lib/ghc-8.10.4/bin/ghc-pkg recache --package-db=/home/jaro/.cabal/store/ghc-8.10.4/package.db
ghc-pkg: Can't find package database in /home/jaro/.ghcup/ghc/8.10.4/lib/ghc-8.10.4/lib

But running ghc-pkg manually does work:

$ which ghc-pkg
/home/jaro/.ghcup/bin/ghc-pkg
$ cwd=/home/jaro/.cabal/store ghc-pkg recache --package-db=/home/jaro/.cabal/store/ghc-8.10.4/package.db

So maybe cabal-store-gc does not work nicely in combination with ghcup?

Probably related to https://github.com/phadej/cabal-extras/issues/31

Any idea why GHC ships 2 ghc-pkg executables that behave differently? :thinking:

• $GHCDIST/bin/ghc-pkg-$GHCVER — symlinked from bin/ghc-pkg, this is the one that appears on PATH;
• $GHCDIST/lib/ghc-$GHCVER/bin/ghc-pkg — another one, that cabal-store-gc tries to call.

... Ah, Ben Gamari explained: the former is a wrapper for the latter, adds appropriate --global-package-db=...

It's weird though, why can't ghc-pkg recache just recache the given package-db and skip trying to load the global one?..

The patch from #99, applied locally, provides a workaround. (As well as manually running ghc-pkg recache).

@phadej #133 implements a fix for this, in the way that you wanted in #99. I'd tested, it does fix the issue. Merge?
