Dear Sir, I removed opam & deleted my .opam folder, and re-installed it , this time version 1.2.2. This time all the opam commands worked without sudo and looks like the installation was right! The last two lines for *opam install mirage* say "installed mirage.2.6.1 Done."
*opam config report * outputs: # OPAM config report # opam-version 1.2.2 # self-upgrade no # os linux # external-solver aspcud $in $out $criteria # criteria -removed,-notuptodate,-changed # jobs 4 # repositories 1* (http) # pinned 0 # current-switch 4.01.0 # last-update 2015-09-24 21:01 but mirage --help still doesn't seem to work. Returns ' The program 'mirage' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get install mirage' Sincerely, Lasya V On 25 September 2015 at 01:55, Amir Chaudhry <[email protected]> wrote: > From the screen log you attached I see a lot of errors related to using > OPAM 1.1.1.
