Hm; ok, I see this is the same as #112, but I still don't understand what should I do to make it work now :(

domenkozar commented

I would suggest using nixpkgs master and just nix-build -A stack2nix <nixpkgs>. I'll fix this for now in the repo.

domenkozar commented

Fixed in master.

For a bit more background: I actually tried stack2nix from nixpkgs-unstable as well as from nixos-18.03 (that were the first things I tried). The former failed to build (but I assumed that's an inherent risk of trying unstable); the latter failed to parse the stack.yml I had. So I tried to use this repo's master, again with no luck (as above). All this work took me already 2+ days and I didn't know what else I could try. I'm kinda between noob and intermediate in Nix, so there are still a lot of areas and failure modes I don't understand well. I just thought I can at least report this issue and maybe hopefully start a discussion that could help me, and/or maybe other people in similar situation, resolve this.

From your reply above, I understand I can now take 46a6736 or later and try again, right? Thanks for the tweak!

edit: Yep, it built — thanks again! 😄

Fixed also nixpkgs: NixOS/nixpkgs@d2c55eb - thanks for the report!
