Mypy daemon suggests using "mypy --install-types" but it doesn't work

[JukkaL]

Here's what happened:

$ dmypy run -- t/t.py
Daemon started
t/t.py:1: error: Library stubs not installed for "requests" (or incompatible with Python 3.8)
t/t.py:1: note: Hint: "python3 -m pip install types-requests"
t/t.py:1: note: (or run "mypy --install-types" to install all missing stub packages)
t/t.py:1: note: See https://mypy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/running_mypy.html#missing-imports
Found 1 error in 1 file (checked 22 source files)
$ mypy --install-types
Error: no mypy cache directory (you must enable incremental mode)

We should either make --install-types work with the daemon or not suggest using it when using the daemon.

Experiencing the same problem within the VS code when running

any news on the workaround/solution?

@KantiCodes you're probably using a version of mypy that doesn't support the new option yet.

@JelleZijlstra thanks a lot :)
