flycheck unable to run cask

[mooseyboots]

(executable-find "cask") returns the path to my cask binary.

but flycheck-verify-setup returns emacs-lisp-elsa under the heading:

"Checkers that are compatible with this mode, but will not run until properly configured:"

like so

  emacs-lisp-elsa
    - may enable: yes
    - may run:    nil
    - executable: Found at /home/mouse/.cask/bin/cask

my cask exec has exec permissions for all users.

i have also used elsa previously, but that was a while back and before updating to 29. i just uncommented the relevant use-package code now and tried again.

You need to have an Elsafile in the project. You can look in this repo to see how it's set up.

The file itself doesn't do much currently, it only acts as a flag of sorts.
