On Windows, packages installed with cabal seem to be unavailable in ghc/ghci

问题


I'm running the latest version of Haskell Platform 8.6.3 on a fairly standard Windows 10 x64 system.

Now I am at my wits end getting packages installed from Hackage to work reliably. Attributing my issues to local configuration problems, I've taken all steps short of nuking my Windows installation. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Hackage, rebooted, scoured every last configuration file I could in any hidden directory or otherwise, deleted every registry key apparently related to Haskell, most of them multiple times, all to no avail:

Packages installed with cabal just don't appear to be available under ghci, WinGHCI, either to be loaded interactively with (:m) under ghci or when compiling using ghc under WinGHCI, no matter what I do.

Below are some symptoms. Any suggestions?

#cabal new-update
Downloading the latest package list from hackage.haskell.org
To revert to previous state run:
    cabal new-update 'hackage.haskell.org,2019-04-02T19:24:19Z'

回答1:


So it looks like you solved your problem by setting GHC_PACKAGE_PATH, right? You might wish to file a bug about that.

The second issue, the runtime "Access violation in generated code when reading" error seems to be documented here:

https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3765

https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/issues/13112

Supposedly passing -fexternal-interpreter to ghci is a workaround. You might want to manually edit the ghc/ghci shim scripts to ensure the flag is always passed until the bug can be fixed.

Thanks for all the responses. I've experimented both with running ghc on some version of UN*X under VirtualBox and uninstalling Haskell Platform and going purely with stack under Windows 10 x64.

Both seem to avoid the many issues I listed above, but stack under Windows seems a little more light-weight and integrates better with my preferred editors (Sublime Text and Visual Studio Code), so that is what I'm going with for now.

In the meantime, with all due gratitude for all the great, free work done by the Haskell Platform guys and the author of WinGHCI, I cannot urge anybody reading this strongly enough to stay away from it, in particular version 8.6.3 under Windows, at least until things are much improved.
