Can't build specific hie version -- forces nightly resolver

[pablox-cl]

I was trying to build a specific version as said in the documentation:

$ make hie-8.4.3
Preparing to install GHC (tinfo6) to an isolated location.
This will not interfere with any system-level installation.
Preparing to download ghc-tinfo6-8.6.3 ...

But it starts downloading, 8.6.3. This happens even when calling make help:

❯ make help
Preparing to install GHC (tinfo6) to an isolated location.
This will not interfere with any system-level installation.
Preparing to download ghc-tinfo6-8.6.3 ...

I barely understand Makefiles, but trying to make any modification it still tried to download 8.6.3, so I don't understand why this is happening.

Ok, I made an advance, sorry, problem is with lines 2 and 18 (stack path --local-bin). This happens because when those variables are being assigned, the stack.yaml is being used. Replacing the resolver there allows the Makefile to continue.

I'm not sure, but I'm guessing this should be considered as a bug.

The fix would be to use --stack-yaml shake.yaml in addition to stack path - -local-bin
If I remember correctly, this will be fixed when #1092 has been merged.

I presume this will go away in #1033?

stack install.hs hie-8.4.3 should no longer download a nightly resolver
however, there still will be two resolvers, one for install.hs and one to install the specific hie version
reopen if installation still forces a nightly resolver
