For all the updates I did, I simply updated the opam program (via
Archlinux's AUR package). The new version of opam just used the old
.opam directory transparently.

Did you try not deleting your .opam?
Does your opam binary live in your .opam? (And if so, you should
consider moving it.)
Did you experience any specific bug when not deleting .opam?


Cheers,
