lts-11.14 and building ghc-mod and other tools

[oshyshko]

How do I build these tools with lts-11.14 or nightly?

$ stack install ghc-mod hlint stylish-haskell hasktags pointfree pointful

I use Atom as IDE. It requires the above tools to work properly. I am using lts-9.21 because it's the latest version that can build these tools without conflicts. I am looking for a way to jump to lts-11.14 or nightly (so I could use the latest GHC and libs).

If I try to build them withresolver: lts-11.14, I get this:

$ stack install ghc-mod hlint stylish-haskell hasktags pointfree pointful

Some different approaches to resolving this:

  * 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.

  * Recommended action: try adding the following to your extra-deps in /Users/oshyshko/.stack/global-project/stack.yaml:

- Cabal-1.24.2.0
- base-4.9.1.0
- cabal-helper-0.7.3.0
- extra-1.5.3
- haskell-src-exts-1.19.1
- haskell-src-exts-simple-1.20.0.0
- hlint-2.0.15
- monad-journal-0.7.2
- optparse-applicative-0.13.2.0

ghc-mod, for example, doesn’t support newer GHCs so it needs to be updated before it can be included in new stackage snapshots
