Arch Linux User Repository

I had to change my $PATH, to not contain my local .opam binaries (ocamlfind reports my .opam/ as a destdir, which doesn't work with the AUR scripts).

Installing with yaourt, I get:

```

```

Is it sane trying install over the existing opam installation?

@sigmundv: thanks! I've made a Dockerfile to test installing on Arch with AUR, and that now builds for me: https://hub.docker.com/r/talex5/0install-docker/~/dockerfile/

I have now updated the ocaml-ssl package, so this should build now.

According to https://github.com/mirage/ocaml-cohttp/issues/462, this was fixed in ocaml-ssh 0.5.2, but Arch only has 0.5.1 (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ocaml-ssl/)

However, the following should let it build:

yaourt -S opam unzip
opam init --comp=4.02.3
eval `opam config env`
opam install 0install

(tested in an Arch Linux Docker container)

sorry,
I can't get this to build:
ideas? Thanks in advance

Please update to 2.9.1. I changed the version in PKGBUILD, ran updpkgsums, and it compiles and runs fine.

Thank you, talex, I'll try that.

Looks like AUR's ocaml-sha package is massively out of date:

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ocaml-sha/

You could try removing the sha package, which will cause 0install to fall back to using openssl's hashing (which is what 2.6 used anyway).

Let me know if any of you experience this failure when building version 2.8:
