problems in installing pandoc-citeproc

problems in installing pandoc-citeproc

[Uwe Brauer]

Hi 

I am using Ubuntu 16.06 and installed 
,----
| pandoc --version
| pandoc 2.1.1
| Compiled with pandoc-types 1.17.3.1, texmath 0.10.1.1, skylighting 0.6
| Default user data directory: /home/oub/.pandoc

However when I tried to run 

sudo stack install pandoc-citeproc 

I obtain 
Run from outside a project, using implicit global project config
Using resolver: lts-13.1 from implicit global project's config file: /home/oub/.stack/global-project/stack.yaml
Downloaded lts-13.1 build plan.
AesonException "Invalid flag name: \"bytestring--lt-0_10_4\""

What can I do?

Thanks

Make sure you have a recent version of stack, and
try with a more recent stack resolver?

stack install pandoc-citeproc --resolver lts-12

Thanks but 

,----
| sudo stack install pandoc-citeproc --resolver lts-12
| Run from outside a project, using implicit global project config
| Using resolver: lts-12 specified on command line
| Selected resolver: lts-12.26
| Downloaded lts-12.26 build plan.

Can I use cabal to install pandoc-citeproc?

I also tried 

sudo stack upgrade and obtain 

Fetched package index.
Populated index cache.
stack-1.9.3: download
Could not parse '/tmp/stack-upgrade1908/stack-1.9.3/stack.yaml':
AesonException "failed to parse field 'extra-deps': (Invalid package identifier: \"Cabal-2.4.0.1@rev:0\",\"Cabal-2.4.0.1@rev:0\")"
See https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/blob/release/doc/yaml_configuration.md.


Frankly: I thought stack and cabal are thought to simplify an upgrade,
but I have been facing always dependencies problems each time I try to
use these programs.

Re: problems in installing pandoc-citeproc

[John MacFarlane]

Instead of 'stack upgrade', try just reinstalling
stack using the procedure here
https://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/install_and_upgrade/

AFter all, if stack is broken (probably because your
version is too old and the format has changed), it
can't upgrade itself.

And yes, you can also use cabal to install
pandoc-citeproc, though you may have different
problems there...

Are you on a system for which the binaries we provide
on our release page won't work?  (The linux binaries
are static and should work on nearly anything.)
