I am splitting this issue off from #1796, because the discussion there got long and so potentially also intimidating. I think this is a very important feature that will be great for intero
and similar tools. The idea is simple:
stack install --compiler-specific
will be a magical incantation that installs tools directly to the compiler bin directory. It is easy to implement, and an important enhancement, so I am marking this P1.
For global installs of GHC, it should warn that it might not have the intended semantics. Like if ghc
is in /usr/local/bin
, we may well be overwriting intero
compiled against a different ghc
, and that might not be expected.
