Fail to build on Debian GNU/Linux 10.2 #340

Open mthl opened 4 years ago

Hello,

I am unable to build learn-ocaml master branch (7f3ce568000b042986d735745b27fb5b53a56dfb) on my system with opam 2.0.3 and ocaml-4.05.0. Here is the error message I am getting when doing make

$ make

Any clue how to solve this?

Hi!

did you perform:

opam install --deps-only .

to install the dependencies? Did you properly configure your environment with eval $(opam env)?

mthl commented 4 years ago

I have used the following commands before running make

opam switch create . --deps-only --locked
opam install opam-installer
eval $(opam env)

Thanks for your quick reply.

Had the same issue in macOS 10.15.2 and this command solved it.

Hello, I gave up on this issue. the time required to run opam related command take way too long for me to continue investigating more.

the last time I tried, I noticed that there was an issue in the opam install opam-installer step.

Maybe unrelated but I noticed that when installing opam on debian it installs an older version of opam-installer which might be related.

Anyway thanks to everyone who have provided some input on that issue.

Hi! I got the environment properly set up on MacOS with 

opam switch create . 4.05.0 --deps-only //I got problems with newer versions
opam install opam-installer.2.0.5 //I got problems with newer versions
eval $(opam env)
opam install --deps-only .
