We're happy to announce the first and hopefully only release candidate of opam 2.3.0.

This version does not have any significant change compared to the previous 2.3.0~beta2 release and we hope the final release to also have no significant change. Regardless, we invite users to test this version to make sure there isn't any regressions.

Unless a regression is spotted or another problem arises, we hope to have the final release of 2.3.0 out on the 12th of November.

Try it!

The upgrade instructions are unchanged:

1. Either from binaries: run

For Unix systems

bash -c "sh <(curl -fsSL https://opam.ocaml.org/install.sh) --version 2.3.0~rc1"

or from PowerShell for Windows systems

Invoke-Expression "& { $(Invoke-RestMethod https://opam.ocaml.org/install.ps1) } -Version 2.3.0~rc1"

or download manually from the Github "Releases" page to your PATH.

2. 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!
