Package: opam
Version: 1.2.2-6
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
the currrent version in unstable of opam fails to build ocamlfind
therefore rendering unusable many opam packages. Compiling opam from
git solves the problem. I invite you to upgrade opam to the latest
release or git snapshot.
This is the log on my machine from a clean opam initialization.
-----------------
$rm -Rf ~/.opam/
$opam init --comp ocaml-base-compiler.4.05.0

In normal operation, OPAM only alters files within ~/.opam.
During this initialisation, you can allow OPAM to add information to two
other files for best results. You can also make these additions manually
if you wish.
If you agree, OPAM will modify:
- ~/.profile (or a file you specify) to set the right environment
variables and to load the auto-completion scripts for your shell (bash)
on startup. Specifically, it checks for and appends the following line:
test -x /home/abate/.opam/opam-init/init.sh && . /home/abate/.opam/opam-init/init.sh >
/dev/null 2> /dev/null || true
- ~/.ocamlinit to ensure that non-system installations of `ocamlfind`
(i.e. those installed by OPAM) will work correctly when running the
OCaml toplevel. It does this by adding $OCAML_TOPLEVEL_PATH to the list
of include directories.
If you choose to not configure your system now, you can either configure
OPAM manually (instructions will be displayed) or launch the automatic setup
later by running:
opam config setup -a
Do you want OPAM to modify ~/.profile and ~/.ocamlinit?
(default is 'no', use 'f' to name a file other than ~/.profile)
[N/y/f]
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
1. To configure OPAM in the current shell session, you need to run:
eval `opam config env`
2. To correctly configure OPAM for subsequent use, add the following
line to your profile file (for instance ~/.profile):
test -x /home/abate/.opam/opam-init/init.sh && . /home/abate/.opam/opam-init/init.sh > /dev/null 2> /dev/null || true
3. To avoid issues related to non-system installations of `ocamlfind`
add the following lines to ~/.ocamlinit (create it if necessary):
let () =
try Topdirs.dir_directory (Sys.getenv "OCAML_TOPLEVEL_PATH")
with Not_found -> ()
;;
