Now the error message is shorter -- begin OPAMROOT=/tmp/opam-install-install src/opam-installer --prefix /usr/local opam.install src\opam => /usr/local\bin\opam Fatal error: exception Unix.Unix_error(20, "create_process", "/bin/sh") Makefile:52: recipe for target 'install' failed make: *** [install] Error 2 -- end Here's a guess. The installation wants to execute files whose names do not end in ".exe", but create_process (on a Windows machine) fails because it wants a file whose name ends in ".exe". If my guess is right, I'm not sure how to fix the problem. Any help would be appreciated.
