ocamlfind 1.9.6 is failing to build in Dream's quick start script on Ubuntu with
Cannot find file /home/runner/.esy/3__________________________________________________________________/s/opam__s__ocamlfind-opam__c__1.9.6-fa4fed9f/lib/findlib/findlib.cma.
Cannot find file /home/runner/.esy/3__________________________________________________________________/s/opam__s__ocamlfind-opam__c__1.9.6-fa4fed9f/lib/findlib/findlib_top.cma.
File "/home/runner/.esy/3__________________________________________________________________/i/ocaml-4.12.1001-d0588c96/lib/ocaml/topfind", line 53, characters 0-22:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Error: Unbound module Topfind
Hint: Did you mean Topdirs?
Unknown directive `require'.
error: command failed: 'ocaml' 'pkg/pkg.ml' 'build' '--dev-pkg' 'false' '--with-base-unix' 'true' '--with-cmdliner' 'false' (exited with 2)
It is also failing on macOS with
install: /Users/runner/.esy/3_________________________________________________________________/i/ocaml-4.12.1001-00b0534a/lib/ocaml//topfind: Operation not permitted
ocamlfind 1.9.5 builds succeeded on both Ubuntu and macOS earlier on the same day (the day ocamlfind 1.9.6 was released).
I am able to reproduce the Ubuntu failure locally under WSL, and it does not appear to be fixed by recent commits fixing ocamlfind 1.9.6.
I realize this is happening in esy-the-client and not in opam-the-client. However, the issue seems likely to be in ocamlfind or opam-repository, so I think it's correct to open it here. Perhaps someone can comment on what might be happening.
is it still failing after an opam update -u? f6590e5
EDIT: ah sorry i skipped over the part where you said it doesn’t help
I’m seeing ocamlfind in the esy override repository: https://github.com/esy-ocaml/esy-opam-override/tree/6/packages/ocamlfind.1.9.5. I’m not sure what it is doing but if this is required for ocamlfind to work for esy then 1.9.6 is missing in there. That would be my guess
Ah, thanks! Didn't know about that. Looks like there is already a PR about this in the repo: esy-ocaml/esy-opam-override#129. I'll close this in favor of watching that. Thanks again, sorry about the noise!
