What may cause alex package build failure?

146 Views Asked by At

So I was trying to set up a Haskell project (ghcup-hs to be precise) but all attempts at building it, be it just cabal run or using HLS in VSCode, fail at alex package. In the terminal, it says "Building", my computer gets hot and loud, and then I just have to force quit the virtual machine since nothing is responding.

I believe it may have something to do with the fact I try to build it on my Ubuntu virtual machine (using Parallels Desktop) but I don't know much about Linux or virtual machines so will be glad to provide any relevant details.
