Opening an OCaml project before having dependencies in .merlin file keeps giving errors even after adding the dependency

How to reproduce:

• Open an OCaml project that has a file that imports any module (for example core open Core)
• The project should have no .merlin file or has the file but the .merlin file doesn’t have PKG core at the time of opening it
• Add PKG core to the .merlin file
• The error keeps printing to the console with every edit to the document until restarting VSCode

The error messages: (the first one keeps repeating with edits - also they don’t show what’s wrong)

(node:65198) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Unhandled promise rejection (rejection id: 2): Error: <unreachable>: error
(node:65198) DeprecationWarning: Unhandled promise rejections are deprecated. In the future, promise rejections that are not handled will terminate the Node.js process with a non-zero exit code.

This should be fixed now that the merlin auto-refresh functionality is enabled.
