https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D259888 --- Comment #1 from Hannes Mehnert <hannes@mehnert.org> --- Dear Alain, first of all: this is not an issue with devel/ocaml-opam - which compiles f= ine, but the output (opam - the OCaml package manager) fails to install some packages due to the OCaml port (lang/ocaml) being very old (see https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D250408 for an attempt to update it). This is a known issue in OCaml 4.08 (e.g. https://github.com/ocaml/ocaml/issues/9540). Since `opam` installed successfully, you can create a "switch" with a more up-to-date OCaml compil= er: $ opam switch create 4.13.1 [... bootstraps and compiles an OCaml compiler, takes some time (10 minutes) ...] $ eval $(opam env) [ now your current shell has some environment variables that will use that switch - run the eval $(opem env) in each shell or via ~/.profile to get th= is newer OCaml compiler ] $ opam install async yojson core_extended core_bench cohttp-async async_graphics cryptokit menhir base core [ should work now ] The root cause is: lang/ocaml is very old and should be updated. In the meantime, opam offers you to install another (newer) OCaml compiler locally. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
