Arthur mentioned that it would be great to know which packages build successfully with OxCaml and which don’t.
With a little effort and PR#106, I was able to get opam-health-check to build OxCaml from the Jane Street branch and test the latest version of all the packages in opam.
I created the switch using the branch janestreet/opam-repository#with-extensions. However, I ran into issues as autoconf isn’t included in the base images. I added an extra-command to install it, but found that these are executed last, after the switch has been created, and I needed autoconf before the switch was created. My PR moved the extra commands earlier in the build process.
Here is my config.yaml.
name: default
port: 8080
public-url: http://oxcaml.check.ci.dev
admin-port: 9999
auto-run-interval: 1680
processes: 100
enable-dune-cache: false
enable-logs-compression: true
default-repository: ocaml/opam-repository
extra-repositories:
- janestreet-with-extensions: janestreet/opam-repository#with-extensions
with-test: false
with-lower-bound: false
list-command: opam list --available --installable --columns=package --short
extra-command: sudo apt install autoconf -y
platform:
os: linux
arch: x86_64

distribution: debian-unstable

ocaml-switches:
- 5.2.0+flambda2:
switch: 5.2.0+flambda2
build-with: opam
This results in these commands, which build the switch for testing:
sudo ln -f /usr/bin/opam-dev /usr/bin/opam
rm -rf ~/opam-repository && git clone -q 'https://github.com/ocaml/opam-repository' ~/opam-repository && git -C ~/opam-repository checkout -q dbc9ec7b83bac3673185542221a571372b6abb35
rm -rf ~/.opam && opam init -ya --bare --config ~/.opamrc-sandbox ~/opam-repository
sudo apt install autoconf -y
git clone -q 'https://github.com/janestreet/opam-repository' ~/'janestreet-with-extensions' && git -C ~/'janestreet-with-extensions' checkout -q 55a5d4c5e35a7365ddd6ffb3b87274a77f77deb5
opam repository add --dont-select 'janestreet-with-extensions' ~/'janestreet-with-extensions'
opam switch create --repositories=janestreet-with-extensions,default '5.2.0+flambda2' '5.2.0+flambda2'
opam update --depexts
