NAME

       opam-switch - Manage multiple installation prefixes.

SYNOPSIS

       opam switch [OPTION]… [COMMAND] [ARG]…

DESCRIPTION

       This command is used to manage "switches", which are independent installation prefixes
       with their own compiler and sets of installed and pinned packages. This is typically
       useful to have different versions of the compiler available at once.

       Use opam switch create to create a new switch, and opam switch set to set the currently
       active switch. Without argument, lists installed switches, with one switch argument,
       defaults to set.

       Switch handles SWITCH can be either a plain name, for switches that will be held inside
       ~/.opam, or a directory name, which in that case is the directory where the switch prefix
       will be installed, as _opam. Opam will automatically select a switch by that name found in
       the current directory or its parents, unless OPAMSWITCH is set or --switch is specified.
       When creating a directory switch, if package definitions are found locally, the user is
       automatically prompted to install them after the switch is created unless --no-install is
       specified.

       opam switch set sets the default switch globally. The shell hook, when enabled,
       synchronises the current shell session with this switch, unless the current directory is a
       local switch, when that local switch is used instead. You can always use eval $(opam env
       --switch=SWITCH --set-switch) to specify the switch explicitly, which overrides the shell
       hook.

COMMANDS

       Without argument, defaults to list.

       SWITCH
           With a SWITCH argument, defaults to set SWITCH.

       -   Switches back to the previous non-local switch (similar to git switch -). To set the
           current switch to a switch named - use --cli=2.1 or lower, or use opam switch set -

       create SWITCH [COMPILER]
           Create a new switch, and install the given compiler there. SWITCH can be a plain name,
           or a directory, absolute or relative, in which case a local switch is created below
           the given directory. COMPILER, if omitted, defaults to SWITCH if it is a plain name,
           unless --packages, --formula or --empty is specified. When creating a local switch,
           and none of these options are present, the compiler is chosen according to the
           configuration default (see opam-init(1)). If the chosen directory contains package
           definitions, a compatible compiler is searched within the default selection, and the
           packages will automatically get installed.

       set SWITCH
           Set the currently active switch, among the installed switches.

       remove SWITCH
           Remove the given switch from disk.

       export FILE
           Save the current switch state to a file. If --full is specified, it includes the
           metadata of all installed packages, and if --freeze is specified, it freezes all vcs
           to their current commit.

       import FILE
           Import a saved switch state. If --switch is specified and doesn't point to an existing
           switch, the switch will be created for the import.

       reinstall [SWITCH]
           Reinstall the given compiler switch and all its packages.

       list
           Lists installed switches.

       list-available [PATTERN]
           Lists all the possible packages that are advised for installation when creating a new
           switch, i.e. packages with the compiler flag set. If no pattern is supplied, all
           versions are shown.

       show
           Prints the name of the current switch.

       invariant
           Prints the active switch invariant.

       set-invariant PACKAGES
           Updates the switch invariant, that is, the formula that the switch must keep verifying
           throughout all operations. The previous setting is overriden. See also options --force
           and --no-action. Without arguments, an invariant is chosen automatically.

       set-description STRING
           Sets the description for the selected switch.

       link SWITCH [DIR]
           Sets a local alias for a given switch, so that the switch gets automatically selected
           whenever in that directory or a descendant.

       install SWITCH
           Removed in 2.1, use create instead.

       set-base PACKAGES
           Removed in 2.1, use set-invariant instead.

EXAMPLES

           opam switch create 4.08.0

       Create a new switch called "4.08.0" and select it, with a compiler automatically selected
       at version 4.08.0 (note that this can fail in case there is more than one compiler
       matching that version).

           opam switch create ./ --deps-only

       Prepare a local switch for building the packages defined in ./. This scans the current
       directory for package definitions, chooses a compatible compiler, creates a local switch
       and installs the local package dependencies.

           opam switch create trunk --repos default,beta=git+https://github.com/ocaml/ocaml-beta-repository.git ocaml-variants.4.10.0+trunk

       Create a new switch called "trunk", with ocaml-variants.4.10.0+trunk as compiler, with a
       new beta repository bound to the given URL selected besides the default one.

OPTIONS

       -A COMP, --alias-of=COMP
           Removed in 2.1.

       --deps-only
           When creating a local switch in a project directory (i.e. a directory containing opam
           package definitions), install the dependencies of the project but not the project
           itself.

       --description=STRING
           Attach the given description to a switch when creating it. Use the set-description
           subcommand to modify the description of an existing switch.

       --empty
           Allow creating an empty switch, with no invariant.

       --force
           Only for set-invariant: force setting the invariant, bypassing consistency checks.

       --formula=FORMULA
           Allows specifying a complete "dependency formula", possibly including disjunction
           cases, as the switch invariant. The format is the same as for expressing dependencies
           in package definition files, e.g. '"foo" {>= "1.1"}'

       --freeze
           When exporting, locks all VCS urls to their current commit, failing if it can not be
           retrieved. This ensures that an import will restore the exact state. Implies --full.

       --full
           When exporting, include the metadata of all installed packages, allowing to re-import
           even if they don't exist in the repositories (the default is to include only the
           metadata of pinned packages).

       -n, --no-action
           Only for set-invariant: set the invariant, but don't enforce it right away: wait for
           the next install, upgrade or similar command.

       --no-autoinstall
           Removed in 2.1.

       --no-install
           When creating a local switch, don't look for any local package definitions to install.

       --no-switch
           Don't automatically select newly installed switches.

       --packages=PACKAGES
           When installing a switch, explicitly define the set of packages to enforce as the
           switch invariant.

       --repositories=REPOS
           When creating a new switch, use the given selection of repositories instead of the
           default. REPOS should be a comma-separated list of either already registered
           repository names (configured through e.g. opam repository add --dont-select), or
           NAME=URL bindings, in which case NAME should not be registered already to a different
           URL, and the new repository will be registered. See opam repository for more details.
           This option also affects list-available.

       -s, --short
           Output raw lists of names, one per line, skipping any details.

PACKAGE BUILD OPTIONS

       --assume-depexts
           Skip the installation step for any missing system packages, and attempt to proceed
           with compilation of the opam packages anyway. If the installation is successful, opam
           won't prompt again about these system packages. Only meaningful if external dependency
           handling is enabled.

       -b, --keep-build-dir
           Keep the build directories after compiling packages. This is equivalent to setting
           $OPAMKEEPBUILDDIR to "true".

       --build-doc
           Removed in 2.1, use --with-doc instead.

       --build-test
           Removed in 2.1, use --with-test instead.

       -d, --with-doc
           Build the package documentation. This only affects packages listed on the
           command-line. This is equivalent to setting $OPAMWITHDOC (or the deprecated
           $OPAMBUILDDOC) to "true".

       --dry-run
           Simulate the command, but don't actually perform any changes. This also can be set
           with environment variable $OPAMDEBUG.

       --fake
           This option registers the actions into the opam database, without actually performing
           them. WARNING: This option is dangerous and likely to break your opam environment. You
           probably want --dry-run. You've been warned.

       --ignore-constraints-on[=PACKAGES] (default=)
           Forces opam to ignore version constraints on all dependencies to the listed packages.
           This can be used to test compatibility, but expect builds to break when using this.
           Note that availability of the packages as well as version constraints on optional
           dependencies and conflicts are unaffected. This is equivalent to setting
           $OPAMIGNORECONSTRAINTS.

       --inplace-build
           When compiling a package which has its source bound to a local directory, process the
           build and install actions directly in that directory, rather than in a clean copy
           handled by opam. This only affects packages that are explicitly listed on the
           command-line. This is equivalent to setting $OPAMINPLACEBUILD to "true".

       -j JOBS, --jobs=JOBS
           Set the maximal number of concurrent jobs to use. The default value is calculated from
           the number of cores. You can also set it using the $OPAMJOBS environment variable.

       --lock-suffix=SUFFIX (absent=locked)
           Set locked files suffix to SUFFIX.

       --locked
           In commands that use opam files found from pinned sources, if a variant of the file
           with an added .locked extension is found (e.g. foo.opam.locked besides foo.opam), that
           will be used instead. This is typically useful to offer a more specific set of
           dependencies and reproduce similar build contexts, hence the name. The  lockoption can
           be used to generate such files, based on the versions of the dependencies currently
           installed on the host. This is equivalent to setting the $OPAMLOCKED environment
           variable. Note that this option doesn't generally affect already pinned packages.

       -m MAKE, --make=MAKE
           Removed in 2.1, use opam config set[-global] make MAKE instead.

       --no-checksums
           Do not verify the checksum of downloaded archives.This is equivalent to setting
           $OPAMNOCHECKSUMS to "true".

       --no-depexts
           Temporarily disables handling of external dependencies. This can be used if a package
           is not available on your system package manager, but you installed the required
           dependency by hand. Implies --assume-depexts, and stores the exceptions upon success
           as well.

       --require-checksums
           Reject the installation of packages that don't provide a checksum for the upstream
           archives. This is equivalent to setting $OPAMREQUIRECHECKSUMS to "true".

       --reuse-build-dir
           Reuse existing build directories (kept by using --keep-build-dir), instead of
           compiling from a fresh clone of the source. This can be faster, but also lead to
           failures if the build systems of the packages don't handle upgrades of dependencies
           well. This is equivalent to setting $OPAMREUSEBUILDDIR to "true".

       --show-actions
           Call the solver and display the actions. Don't perform any changes. This is equivalent
           to setting $OPAMSHOW.

       --skip-updates
           When running an install, upgrade or reinstall on source-pinned packages, they are
           normally updated from their origin first. This flag disables that behaviour and will
           keep them to their version in cache. This is equivalent to setting $OPAMSKIPUPDATE.

       -t, --with-test
           Build and run the package unit-tests. This only affects packages listed on the
           command-line. This is equivalent to setting $OPAMWITHTEST (or the deprecated
           $OPAMBUILDTEST) to "true".

       --unlock-base
           Removed in 2.1, use --update-invariant instead.

       --update-invariant
           Allow changes to the packages set as switch base (typically, the main compiler). Use
           with caution. This is equivalent to setting the $OPAMUNLOCKBASE environment variable

       --with-dev-setup
           Include development tools only dependencies.

COMMON OPTIONS

       These options are common to all commands.

       --best-effort
           Don't fail if all requested packages can't be installed: try to install as many as
           possible. Note that not all external solvers may support this option (recent versions
           of aspcud or mccs should). This is equivalent to setting $OPAMBESTEFFORT environment
           variable.

       --cli=MAJOR.MINOR (absent=2.2)
           Use the command-line interface syntax and semantics of MAJOR.MINOR. Intended for any
           persistent use of opam (scripts, blog posts, etc.), any version of opam in the same
           MAJOR series will behave as for the specified MINOR release. The flag was not
           available in opam 2.0, so to select the 2.0 CLI, set the OPAMCLI environment variable
           to 2.0 instead of using this parameter.

       --color=WHEN
           Colorize the output. WHEN must be one of always, never or auto.

       --confirm-level=LEVEL
           Confirmation level, LEVEL must be one of ask, no, yes or unsafe-yes. Can be specified
           more than once. If --yes or --no are also given, the value of the last --confirm-level
           is taken into account. This is equivalent to setting  $OPAMCONFIRMLEVEL`.

       --criteria=CRITERIA
           Specify user preferences for dependency solving for this run. Overrides $OPAMCRITERIA,
           $OPAMFIXUPCRITERIA and $OPAMUPGRADECRITERIA. For details on the supported language,
           and the external solvers available, see
           http://opam.ocaml.org/doc/External_solvers.html. A general guide to using solver
           preferences can be found at  http://www.dicosmo.org/Articles/usercriteria.pdf.

       --cudf=FILENAME
           Debug option: Save the CUDF requests sent to the solver to FILENAME-<n>.cudf where <n>
           is the n-th call to the solver during the opam run.

       --debug
           Print debug message to stderr. This is equivalent to setting $OPAMDEBUG to "true".

       --debug-level=LEVEL
           Like --debug, but allows specifying the debug level (--debug sets it to 1). Equivalent
           to setting $OPAMDEBUG to a positive integer.

       --git-version
           Print the git version of opam, if set (i.e. you are using a development version), and
           exit.

       --help[=FMT] (default=auto)
           Show this help in format FMT. The value FMT must be one of auto, pager, groff or
           plain. With auto, the format is pager or plain whenever the TERM env var is dumb or
           undefined.

       --ignore-pin-depends
           Ignore extra pins required by packages that get pinned, either manually through opam
           pin or through opam install DIR. This is equivalent to setting IGNOREPINDEPENDS=true.

       --json=FILENAME
           Save the results of the opam run in a computer-readable file. If the filename contains
           the character `%', it will be replaced by an index that doesn't overwrite an existing
           file. Similar to setting the $OPAMJSON variable.

       --no
           Answer no to all opam yes/no questions without prompting. See also --confirm-level.
           This is equivalent to setting $OPAMNO to "true".

       --no-aspcud
           Removed in 2.1.

       --no-auto-upgrade
           When configuring or updating a repository that is written for an earlier opam version
           (1.2), opam internally converts it to the current format. This disables this
           behaviour. Note that repositories should define their format version in a 'repo' file
           at their root, or they will be assumed to be in the older format. It is, in any case,
           preferable to upgrade the repositories manually using opam admin upgrade [--mirror
           URL] when possible.

       --no-self-upgrade
           Opam will replace itself with a newer binary found at OPAMROOT/opam if present. This
           disables this behaviour.

       -q, --quiet
           Disables --verbose.

       --root=ROOT
           Use ROOT as the current root path. This is equivalent to setting $OPAMROOT to ROOT.

       --safe, --readonly
           Make sure nothing will be automatically updated or rewritten. Useful for calling from
           completion scripts, for example. Will fail whenever such an operation is needed ; also
           avoids waiting for locks, skips interactive questions and overrides the $OPAMDEBUG
           variable. This is equivalent to set environment variable $OPAMSAFE.

       --solver=CMD
           Specify the CUDF solver to use for resolving package installation problems. This is
           either a predefined solver (this version of opam supports builtin-mccs+lp(),
           builtin-mccs+glpk, builtin-dummy-z3-solver, builtin-0install, aspcud, mccs,
           aspcud-old, packup), or a custom command that should contain the variables %{input}%,
           %{output}%, %{criteria}%, and optionally %{timeout}%. This is equivalent to setting
           $OPAMEXTERNALSOLVER.

       --strict
           Fail whenever an error is found in a package definition or a configuration file. The
           default is to continue silently if possible.

       --switch=SWITCH
           Use SWITCH as the current compiler switch. This is equivalent to setting $OPAMSWITCH
           to SWITCH.

       --use-internal-solver
           Disable any external solver, and use the built-in one (this requires that opam has
           been compiled with a built-in solver). This is equivalent to setting $OPAMNOASPCUD or
           $OPAMUSEINTERNALSOLVER.

       -v, --verbose
           Be more verbose. One -v shows all package commands, repeat to also display commands
           called internally (e.g. tar, curl, patch etc.) Repeating n times is equivalent to
           setting $OPAMVERBOSE to "n".

       --version
           Show version information.

       -w, --working-dir
           Whenever updating packages that are bound to a local, version-controlled directory,
           update to the current working state of their source instead of the last committed
           state, or the ref they are pointing to. As source directory is copied as it is, if it
           isn't clean it may result on a opam build failure. This only affects packages
           explicitly listed on the command-line. It can also be set with $OPAMWORKINGDIR.

       -y, --yes
           Answer yes to all opam yes/no questions without prompting. See also --confirm-level.
           This is equivalent to setting $OPAMYES to "true".

ENVIRONMENT

       Opam makes use of the environment variables listed here. Boolean variables should be set
       to "0", "no", "false" or the empty string to disable, "1", "yes" or "true" to enable.

       OPAMALLPARENS surround all filters with parenthesis.

       OPAMASSUMEDEPEXTS see option `--assume-depexts'.

       OPAMAUTOREMOVE see remove option `--auto-remove'.

       OPAMBESTEFFORT see option `--best-effort'.

       OPAMBESTEFFORTPREFIXCRITERIA sets the string that must be prepended to the criteria when
       the `--best-effort' option is set, and is expected to maximise the `opam-query' property
       in the solution.

       OPAMBUILDDOC Removed in 2.1.

       OPAMBUILDTEST Removed in 2.1.

       OPAMCLI see option `--cli'.

       OPAMCOLOR when set to always or never, sets a default value for the `--color' option.

       OPAMCONFIRMLEVEL see option `--confirm-level`. OPAMCONFIRMLEVEL has priority over OPAMYES
       and OPAMNO.

       OPAMCRITERIA specifies user preferences for dependency solving. The default value depends
       on the solver version, use `config report' to know the current setting. See also option
       --criteria.

       OPAMCUDFFILE save the cudf graph to file-actions-explicit.dot.

       OPAMCUDFTRIM controls the filtering of unrelated packages during CUDF preprocessing.

       OPAMCURL can be used to select a given 'curl' program. See OPAMFETCH for more options.

       OPAMDEBUG see options `--debug' and `--debug-level'.

       OPAMDEBUGSECTIONS if set, limits debug messages to the space-separated list of sections.
       Sections can optionally have a specific debug level (for example, CLIENT:2 or CLIENT
       CUDF:2), but otherwise use `--debug-level'.

       OPAMDIGDEPTH defines how aggressive the lookup for conflicts during CUDF preprocessing is.

       OPAMDOWNLOADJOBS sets the maximum number of simultaneous downloads.

       OPAMDROPWORKINGDIR overrides packages previously updated with --working-dir on update.
       Without this variable set, opam would keep them unchanged unless explicitly named on the
       command-line.

       OPAMDRYRUN see option `--dry-run'.

       OPAMEDITOR sets the editor to use for opam file editing, overrides $EDITOR and $VISUAL.

       OPAMERRLOGLEN sets the number of log lines printed when a sub-process fails. 0 to print
       all.

       OPAMEXTERNALSOLVER see option `--solver'.

       OPAMFAKE see option `--fake'.

       OPAMFETCH specifies how to download files: either `wget', `curl' or a custom command where
       variables %{url}%, %{out}%, %{retry}%, %{compress}% and %{checksum}% will be replaced.
       Overrides the 'download-command' value from the main config file.

       OPAMFIXUPCRITERIA same as OPAMUPGRADECRITERIA, but specific to fixup and reinstall.

       OPAMIGNORECONSTRAINTS see install option `--ignore-constraints-on'.

       OPAMIGNOREPINDEPENDS see option `--ignore-pin-depends'.

       OPAMINPLACEBUILD see option `--inplace-build'.

       OPAMJOBS sets the maximum number of parallel workers to run.

       OPAMJSON log json output to the given file (use character `%' to index the files).

       OPAMKEEPBUILDDIR see install option `--keep-build-dir'.

       OPAMKEEPLOGS tells opam to not remove some temporary command logs and some backups. This
       skips some finalisers and may also help to get more reliable backtraces.

       OPAMLOCKED combination of `--locked' and `--lock-suffix' options.

       OPAMLOGS logdir sets log directory, default is a temporary directory in /tmp

       OPAMMAKECMD set the system make command to use.

       OPAMMERGEOUT merge process outputs, stderr on stdout.

       OPAMNO answer no to any question asked, see options `--no` and `--confirm-level`. OPAMNO
       is ignored if either OPAMCONFIRMLEVEL or OPAMYES is set.

       OPAMNOAGGREGATE with `opam admin check', don't aggregate packages.

       OPAMNOASPCUD Deprecated.

       OPAMNOAUTOUPGRADE disables automatic internal upgrade of repositories in an earlier format
       to the current one, on 'update' or 'init'.

       OPAMNOCHECKSUMS enables option --no-checksums when available.

       OPAMNODEPEXTS disables system dependencies handling, see option `--no-depexts'.

       OPAMNOENVNOTICE Internal.

       OPAMNOSELFUPGRADE see option `--no-self-upgrade'

       OPAMPINKINDAUTO sets whether version control systems should be detected when pinning to a
       local path. Enabled by default since 1.3.0.

       OPAMPRECISETRACKING fine grain tracking of directories.

       OPAMPREPRO set this to false to disable CUDF preprocessing. Less efficient, but might help
       debugging solver issue.

       OPAMREPOSITORYTARRING internally store the repositories as tar.gz files. This can be much
       faster on filesystems that don't cope well with scanning large trees but have good caching
       in /tmp. However this is slower in the general case.

       OPAMREQUIRECHECKSUMS Enables option `--require-checksums' when available (e.g. for `opam
       install').

       OPAMRETRIES sets the number of tries before failing downloads.

       OPAMREUSEBUILDDIR see option `--reuse-build-dir'.

       OPAMROOT see option `--root'. This is automatically set by `opam env --root=DIR
       --set-root'.

       OPAMROOTISOK don't complain when running as root.

       OPAMSAFE see option `--safe'.

       OPAMSHOW see option `--show'.

       OPAMSKIPUPDATE see option `--skip-updates'.

       OPAMSKIPVERSIONCHECKS bypasses some version checks. Unsafe, for compatibility testing
       only.

       OPAMSOLVERALLOWSUBOPTIMAL (default `true') allows some solvers to still return a solution
       when they reach timeout; while the solution remains assured to be consistent, there is no
       guarantee in this case that it fits the expected optimisation criteria. If `true', opam
       willcontinue with a warning, if `false' a timeout is an error. Currently only the
       builtin-z3 backend handles this degraded case.

       OPAMSOLVERTIMEOUT change the time allowance of the solver. Default is 60.0, set to 0 for
       unlimited. Note that all solvers may not support this option.

       OPAMSTATS display stats at the end of command.

       OPAMSTATUSLINE display a dynamic status line showing what's currently going on on the
       terminal. (one of one of always, never or auto)

       OPAMSTRICT fail on inconsistencies (file reading, switch import, etc.).

       OPAMSWITCH see option `--switch'. Automatically set by `opam env --switch=SWITCH
       --set-switch'.

       OPAMUNLOCKBASE see install option `--unlock-base'.

       OPAMUPGRADECRITERIA specifies user preferences for dependency solving when performing an
       upgrade. Overrides OPAMCRITERIA in upgrades if both are set. See also option --criteria.

       OPAMUSEINTERNALSOLVER see option `--use-internal-solver'.

       OPAMUSEOPENSSL Removed in 2.2.

       OPAMUTF8 use UTF8 characters in output (one of one of always, never or auto). By default
       `auto', which is determined from the locale).

       OPAMUTF8MSGS use extended UTF8 characters (camels) in opam messages. Implies OPAMUTF8.
       This is set by default on macOS only.

       OPAMVALIDATIONHOOK if set, uses the `%{hook%}' command to validate an opam repository
       update.

       OPAMVERBOSE see option `--verbose'.

       OPAMVERSIONLAGPOWER do not use.

       OPAMWITHDEVSETUP see install option `--with-dev-setup'.

       OPAMWITHDOC see install option `--with-doc'.

       OPAMWITHTEST see install option `--with-test.

       OPAMWORKINGDIR see option `--working-dir'.

       OPAMYES see options `--yes' and `--confirm-level`. OPAMYES has priority over OPAMNO and is
       ignored if OPAMCONFIRMLEVEL is set.

       OPAMVAR_var overrides the contents of the variable var when substituting `%{var}%` strings
       in `opam` files.

       OPAMVAR_package_var overrides the contents of the variable package:var when substituting
       `%{package:var}%` strings in `opam` files.

CLI VERSION

       All scripts and programmatic invocations of opam should use `--cli' in order to ensure
       that they work seamlessly with future versions of the opam client. Additionally, blog
       posts or other documentation can benefit, as it prevents information from becoming stale.

       Although opam only supports roots (~/.opam/) for the current version, it does provide
       backwards compatibility for its command-line interface.

       Since CLI version support was only added in opam 2.1, use OPAMCLI to select 2.0 support
       (as opam 2.0 will just ignore it), and `--cli=2.1' for 2.1 (or later) versions, since an
       environment variable controlling the parsing of syntax is brittle. To this end, opam
       displays a warning if OPAMCLI specifies a valid version other than 2.0, and also if
       `--cli=2.0' is specified.

       The command-line version is selected by using the `--cli' option or the OPAMCLI
       environment variable. `--cli' may be specified morethan once, where the last instance
       takes precedence. OPAMCLI is only inspected if `--cli' is not given.

EXIT STATUS

       As an exception to the following, the `exec' command returns 127 if the command was not
       found or couldn't be executed, and the command's exit value otherwise.

       0   Success, or true for boolean queries.

       1   False. Returned when a boolean return value is expected, e.g. when running with
           --check, or for queries like opam lint.

       2   Bad command-line arguments, or command-line arguments pointing to an invalid context
           (e.g. file not following the expected format).

       5   Not found. You requested something (package, version, repository, etc.) that couldn't
           be found.

       10  Aborted. The operation required confirmation, which wasn't given.

       15  Could not acquire the locks required for the operation.

       20  There is no solution to the user request. This can be caused by asking to install two
           incompatible packages, for example.

       30  Error in package definition, or other metadata files. Using --strict raises this error
           more often.

       31  Package script error. Some package operations were unsuccessful. This may be an error
           in the packages or an incompatibility with your system. This can be a partial error.

       40  Sync error. Could not fetch some remotes from the network. This can be a partial
           error.

       50  Configuration error. Opam or system configuration doesn't allow operation, and needs
           fixing.

       60  Solver failure. The solver failed to return a sound answer. It can be due to a broken
           external solver, or an error in solver configuration.

       99  Internal error. Something went wrong, likely due to a bug in opam itself.

       130 User interrupt. SIGINT was received, generally due to the user pressing Ctrl-C.

       0   on success.

       123 on indiscriminate errors reported on standard error.

       124 on command line parsing errors.

       125 on unexpected internal errors (bugs).
