Subject: [Caml-list] How to properly do "opam switch"?
Date: Thu, 13 Nov 2014 15:40:28 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20141113154028.0ae9e90c.itz@buug.org> (raw)
After I do "opam switch 4.02.1" and perform the environment
incantations, I have a new subtree ~/.opam/4.02.1 with its own bin, man
etc. subdirs, and my environment variables now point to it:
[26+0]~$ env | fgrep -i opam
CAML_LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/itz/.opam/4.02.1/lib/stublibs
MANPATH=:/home/itz/.opam/4.02.1/man:/opt/posix/man
PERL5LIB=/home/itz/.opam/4.02.1/lib/perl5
OCAML_TOPLEVEL_PATH=/home/itz/.opam/4.02.1/lib/toplevel
PATH=/home/itz/HOL/bin:/home/itz/.cabal/bin:/home/itz/.opam/4.02.1/bin:/home/itz/eclipse:/home/itz/src/makefiles:/home/itz/.share/bin:/home/itz/bin:/usr/lib/ccache:/opt/ghc/7.8.3/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/games
OPAMKEEPBUILDDIR=y
OPAMCOLOR=never
Unfortunately, this subtree contains _only_ the compiler, and no other
packages from the earlier (4.01.0) subtree. In particular, not opam
itself! That means I cannot
a. recompile any packages with opam, or even
b. get documentation on how to get out of this state :-P
What is the proper way to handle this, as I must have missed it?
