We're happy to announce the second beta release of opam 2.3.0.
As this version is a beta, we invite users to test it to spot previously unnoticed bugs as we head towards the stable release.
Compared to the previous 2.3.0~beta1 release, the main change is:
-
Fix a regression in the detection of the current terminal size that leads to opam output that tries to fit itself into 80 columns regardless of the current terminal size (#6243).
-
A NetBSD/x86_64 pre-built release binary is now available
You can view the full list of changes, including API changes, in the release note.
The upgrade instructions are unchanged:
- Either from binaries: run
For Unix systems
bash -c "sh <(curl -fsSL https://opam.ocaml.org/install.sh) --version 2.3.0~beta2"
or from PowerShell for Windows systems
Invoke-Expression "& { $(Invoke-RestMethod https://opam.ocaml.org/install.ps1) } -Version 2.3.0~beta2"
or download manually from the Github "Releases" page to your PATH.
- Or from source, manually: see the instructions in the README.
You should then run:
opam init --reinit -ni
Please report any issues to the bug-tracker.
Happy hacking!
