Hi opam-devel, You may be interested in this document being elaborated by Edward Yang as part of his work "cabal new-build" that is described as a "nix-style local build" for cabal (a core Haskell tool that is on the crossroad between opam and oasis and ocamlbuild, and as you could guess has unsatisfied users on all three of these fronts). It could be interesting and inspirational with respect to the discussion on workflows for local roots or local switches in opam.
Cabal User Guide: Nix-style local builds http://ezyang.com/nix-local-build.html (Other tools of interest from other communities would be Haskell's "stack" and Rust's "cargo", but they differ and are interesting in many broader, less well-defined aspects of the user experience, and I have no personal experience with them.) _______________________________________________ opam-devel mailing list opam-devel@lists.ocaml.org http://lists.ocaml.org/listinfo/opam-devel
