package opam-0install

  1. Overview
  2. Docs

This module maps between the opam and 0install concepts. Roughly:

  • An opam package name is a 0install role.
  • An opam package is a 0install implementation.
  • An opam version formula is a 0install restriction.

For dependencies:

  • depends become "essential" dependencies
  • depopts are ignored (the opam solver ignores them too; they don't have constraints)
  • conflicts become "restricts" (with the test reversed)

Dependencies on alternatives (e.g. "ocaml-base-compiler | ocaml-variants") become a dependency on a virtual package which has each choice as an implementation.
