Your zls is too old to function with a recent version of zig master as the build runner and modules have changed in a backwards incompatible way.

[chrboesch]

Hm, I tried git pull on master to compile the latest version and get Already up to date.

[leecannon]

The command to execute the build runner that zls master uses is zig build --build-runner build_runner.zig (from populateBuildConfigurationArgs in DocumentStore.zig) this change was made in #1029.

Your zls is using the old build runner execution arguments with --pkg-begin @build@ /home/chris/workspace/zig/test/build/3/build.zig --pkg-end that zig master no long supports, the only mention of --pkg-begin in the codebase was removed as part of #1029.

Ok, I will see if Mason changed my zls which I built yesterday. I put it always in the path /home/chris/.local/share/nvim/mason/packages/zls/bin/ and that should work.

[chrboesch]

Indeed Mason changed my zls with its own build. Sorry for that issue. 😞

I have now deleted mason-receipt.json so it cannot happen again!
