Why do you think this is an issue with nvim-lsp-installer?

I guess the commit 2631265173cd2c9b3ffa9057b6125477b077abf8 caused this problem.

If I download installer of version 3c21304, the problem disappeared.

Neovim version (>= 0.7)

NVIM v0.8.0-dev+124-g815b65d77
Build type: RelWithDebInfo
LuaJIT 2.1.0-beta3

Updating to latest neovim-nightly fixes this issue.

Seems like stdpath("state") is not available in early nightlies that report version as 0.8.0.

Hello! stdpath("state") (which I now realize really should be stdpath("log")) was added ~18 days ago in neovim HEAD. I figured that'd be enough time for people running nightly/HEAD to have updated by (am I the only one who compiles HEAD daily 😅?). If you use latest stable 0.7.0 it won't try to use any new stdpath!

Seeing as this is for such a minor thing (the location of a log file) I'll revert the original change, although I do really recommend following HEAD/nightly once you're on it (or simply just use latest stable).
