For the OPAM users among you, I've added a 4.01.0 compiler switch which will track the RC releases, and eventually become the official release when it's out. $ opam update $ opam switch 4.01.0 $ eval `opam config env` # ??? # profit I've been running a full regression test of the entire OPAM database on a variety of architectures and triaging the results. If anyone else is interested in helping submit patches to fix issues, then please see: https://github.com/OCamlPro/opam-repository/issues/1029 Note that the above link is a bit raw, since it also includes failures from bugs in 4.00.1 packages too. We've just been fixing everything we can spot in preparation for testing the forthcoming OPAM 1.1 beta on as stable a package database as possible. I'm preparing a blog post describing the most common failures we've seen to help package authors avoid them in the future (warnings-as-errors, I'm looking at you!) cheers, Anil
