Searching on the error turned up this thread:

> Thank you, this fixed the issue on a NixOS 23.05 (stable channel) machine, which packages cabal 3.10.x and ghc 9.2.x And just for the record, cabal 3.6.2 (with ghc 8.10.7) doesn't have this behavior.

Can you give the resolution suggested there a try?

PS to clarify, this is not a pulsar issue - pulsar has handed off to ghci by this point, and tidal is failing to boot. This will affect all editors
