Re: [Haskell-cafe] stack setup errors when user name has accents

This was due to a bug in the yaml package, apologies. It's been patched, and the next version of Stack will have the bugfix. I believe the next version will be released in the next few days, but if you're able to build from master, you can use that.

Thanks a lot for your answer, it's good to know that soon the new Stack version will solve it.

Here's the original issue, which includes a link to a temporary workaround:

I'll take a look at that.

I am new in Haskell, and I am trying to use stack in my "Windows 10" machine to study a little more.

Stack installed nicely, but when I run "stack setup" at the command prompt I get the following error:

*"Could not parse 'C:\Users\Andr├®\AppData\Roaming\stack\config.yaml':* *InvalidYaml (Just (YamlException "Yaml file not found: C:\\Users\\Andr\233\\AppData\\Roaming\\stack\\config.yaml"))*

*See http://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/yaml_configuration/ http://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/yaml_configuration/."*

My name is "André" with an accent, and that's the problem, it can not find config.yaml at my windows user directory. Is there a way to solve this problem, maybe force stack to look into another folder, or something else?

My windows command prompt encoding is 850, I do not not know if this info could help.

Thanks in advance for any answer, André.
