hstefanov@pop-os:~/.local/haskell-ide-engine$ stack install Stack looks for packages in the directories configured in the 'packages' and 'extra-deps' fields defined in your stack.yaml The current entry points to /home/hstefanov/.local/haskell-ide-engine/submodules/HaRe/ but no .cabal or package.yaml file could be found there.

When trying to install hlint: Warning: Installation path /.local/bin not found on the PATH environment variable.

And afterwards:

Please provide a link to the instructions you followed to get to this point.

I'm guessing he's following this. https://www.vacationlabs.com/haskell/environment-setup.html

Looks like instructions on that site should be updated with --recursive flag to git clone command.

@h2000Stefanov @AndreasVoellmy If --recursive the confirmed solution I can push a fix to the docs immediately. Else this might have to wait a few days. Just got back from vacations and have a lot of emails to look at.

@saurabhnanda I am pretty sure that will sort it out, introducing submodules has caused that problem in a number of different install instructions.

Reopen if recursive clone doesn't help.
