Hello,
Michael Snoyman
The problem here is that:
* You're on an OS that doesn't have prebuilt binaries (FreeBSD 32-bit) * The version you're using (1.5.1) isn't compatible with the newer syntax used in the stack.yaml file for 1.7.1[1]
I'll need to upgrade in two steps: first upgrade to 1.6.1, then to 1.7.1 using that Stack. Something like this should work:
$ git clone https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack --branch v1.6.1 $ cd stack $ stack install # make sure you're using the new stack 1.6.1 binary
Everything works to here. stack --version Version 1.6.1, Git revision f25811329bbc40b0c21053a8160c56f923e1201b (5435 commits) i386 hpack-0.20.0
$ stack upgrade
stack upgrade zsh: bus error (core dumped) stack upgrade
# or $ git checkout v1.7.1 $ stack install
Hoping for a miracle: stack install Downloading lts-11.6 build plan ...zsh: bus error (core dumped) stack install oops! No miracle. Thanks for helping. Roger
