With Swift 6, swift run --repl causes "redefinition of module" errors, depending on dependencies

[ORBAT]

Is it reproducible with SwiftPM command-line tools: swift build, swift test, swift package etc?

• Confirmed reproduction steps with SwiftPM CLI. The description text must include reproduction steps with either of command-line SwiftPM commands, swift build, swift test, swift package etc.

Description

Depending on the packages in the dependencies array in Package.swift, running swift run --repl and typing anything in the REPL leads to an couldn't IRGen expression: Clang importer error and redefinition of module errors and I can't even tell whether anything is getting executed or not.

Not all packages cause this; so far I've had this problem with

• .package(url: "https://github.com/apple/swift-argument-parser", from: "1.3.0")
• .package(url: "https://github.com/pointfreeco/swift-parsing", branch: "main")
• .package(url: "https://github.com/ordo-one/package-benchmark", from: "1.4.0")

But for example .package(url: "https://github.com/apple/swift-collections.git", from: "1.1.0") has not caused this.

I've tried

• swift package reset && swift package purge-cache
• rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/org.swift.swiftpm/
• fd --hidden --no-ignore --ignore-case --glob "*modulecache*" /var/folders --exec rm -rf (to clear clang's module cache, based on an answer to this SO question)

Expected behavior

No errors.

Actual behavior

Example with only .package(url: "https://github.com/apple/swift-argument-parser", from: "1.3.0") as a dependency:

The exact module redefinition errors vary depending on which package(s) I've got in my dependencies.

Full swift run --repl -v outputs for the 3 problematic packages in an empty project like in the reproduction steps (includes one :swift-healthcheck output):

Steps to reproduce

1. mkdir problem-package && cd problem-package
2. swift package init --type=library --disable-xctest --disable-swift-testing
3. run one of:
   1. swift package add-dependency https://github.com/apple/swift-argument-parser --from 1.3.0
   2. swift package add-dependency https://github.com/pointfreeco/swift-parsing --branch main
   3. swift package add-dependency https://github.com/ordo-one/package-benchmark --from 1.4.0
4. swift run --repl
5. let a = 1
