ghc-mod doesn't yet support GHC 8.2 or later[1]. You'll need to use an
older version of the compiler if you want ghc-mod support. If you check out
ghc-mod's Stackage page[2], you can see that the latest snapshots
supporting it are lts-8.24 and nightly-2017-06-28, so those are options if
you need ghc-mod support. Note, however, that they're relatively old, so
may be missing other things you want.
I wrote a blog post recently about selecting older snapshots for building
tools[3], which may be helpful.
[1] On the Hackage page (http://hackage.haskell.org/package/ghc-mod), you
can see that it says base < 4.10. On this page (https://www.snoyman.com/base),
you can see that 4.10 ships with GHC 8.2. base is a library which cannot be
upgraded.

Hi,
When I executed the command *stack install ghc-mod*, it gave me the following error.
In the dependencies for ghc-mod-5.8.0.0:
Cabal-2.0.1.1 from stack configuration does not match >=1.18 && <1.25 (latest matching version is 1.24.2.0) base-4.10.1.0 from stack configuration does not match >=4.6.0.1 && <4.10 (latest matching version is 4.9.1.0) cabal-helper must match <0.8 && >=0.7.3.0, but the stack configuration has no specified version (latest matching version is 0.7.3.0) extra-1.6.2 from stack configuration does not match <1.6 && >=1.4 (latest matching version is 1.5.3) ghc-8.2.2 from stack configuration does not match >=7.6 && <8.2 monad-journal-0.8.1 from stack configuration does not match <0.8 &&
=0.4 (latest matching version is 0.7.2) optparse-applicative-0.14.0.0 from stack configuration does not match =0.13.0.0 && <0.14 (latest matching version is 0.13.2.0)
needed since ghc-mod is a build target.
Can I get an advice to solve this error?
