You can add `--dry-run` to see what it plans to do, and kill/restart it without losing progress.\
If it says you need to run `stack setup`, do that then run the install command again.\
If it says "Error: While constructing the build plan...", try adding `--resolver=lts` to the install command, or setting a newer resolver in `$HOME/.stack/global/stack.yaml`.\
On Mac, if it says "ghc: panic! ... no suitable image found", you may need to specify GHC 8.0.2+/lts-8+, as above.\
If it gives "Invalid package ID" errors, get a newer version of stack (see step 1).\
If you're a [cabal](https://www.haskell.org/cabal/) expert, feel free to use that instead of stack.\
If you get errors due to missing C libraries (like curses or terminfo), install those manually, eg:

If you need to build with an older GHC version for some reason, these commands should work
(except on Mac sierra which [requires GHC 8.0.2+](https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12479)):\
GHC 7.10.3: `stack install --resolver lts-6 hledger-lib-1.3 hledger-1.3 hledger-ui-1.3 hledger-web-1.3 hledger-api-1.3 megaparsec-5.3.1 brick-0.19 vty-5.15.1 data-clist-0.1.2.0 text-zipper-0.10`\

Now you should be able to run `hledger --version` and see a version similar to the above
(and `hledger-ui --version`, `hledger-web --version` etc. if you installed those).
