Arrow Core 2 causes undeclared type variable: A when using NonEmptyList

[dcampogiani]

Hi,

when I try to inject with Hilt a component returning NonEmptyList, such as:

internal fun interface StateBuilder {
    fun build(): NonEmptyList<String>
}

I'm getting

bad class file: /Users/danielecampogiani/Developing/android/arrow-2-empty-list-issue/app/build/tmp/kotlin-classes/debug/com/danielecampogiani/StateBuilder.class
undeclared type variable: A
Please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectory of the classpath.

I've created a reproducible issue in this repo: https://github.com/dcampogiani/Arrow-Core-2-NonEmptyList-Issue

Dependencies:

• arrowCore = "2.0.0"
• hilt = "2.54"
• kotlin = "2.1.0"

Everything works fine if I use arrowCore=1.2.4, or replace NonEmptyList with List

NonEmptyList v1.2.4 is a normal class.
Since 2.0.0, it is a @JvmInline value class.
Does Hilt/Dagger support @JvmInline value class?

I believe a similar issue has been reported, and a hot fix either has been released or will be released soon. The issue is that the type parameter of Nel needs to have the same name as the type parameter of List, so the fix does precisely that. I'll try to find the related issue
