opam-reinstall (1)

opam reinstall [OPTION]... PACKAGES...

This command removes the given packages and the ones that depend on them, and reinstalls the same versions.

PACKAGES

List of package names, with an optional version or constraint, e.g `pkg', `pkg.1.0' or `pkg>=0.5'.

-b, --keep-build-dir

Keep the build directory. This is equivalent to setting $OPAMKEEPBUILDDIR to "true".

-d, --build-doc

Build the package documentation. This is equivalent to setting $OPAMBUILDDOC to "true".

--dry-run

Simulate the command, but don't actually perform any changes.

-e TAGS, --external=TAGS

Display the external packages associated to the given tags.

--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.

-j JOBS, --jobs=JOBS

Set the maximal number of concurrent jobs to use. You can also set it using the $OPAMJOBS environment variable.

--json=FILENAME

Save the result output of an OPAM run in a computer-readable file

-m MAKE, --make=MAKE

Use MAKE as the default 'make' command.

--no-checksums

Do not verify the checksum of downloaded archives.This is equivalent to setting $OPAMNOCHECKSUMS to "true".

--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".

--show-actions

Call the solver and display the actions. Don't perform any changes.

-t, --build-test

Build and run the package unit-tests. This is equivalent to setting $OPAMBUILDTEST to "true".

These options are common to all commands.

--color=WHEN (absent=auto)

Colorize the output. WHEN must be `always', `never' or `auto'.

--compat-mode-1.0

Compatibility mode with OPAM 1.0

--criteria=CRITERIA

Specify user preferences for dependency solving for this run. Overrides both $OPAMCRITERIA and $OPAMUPGRADECRITERIA. For details on the supported language, and the external solvers available, see http://opam.ocaml.org/doc/Specifying_Solver_Preferences.html. A general guide to using solver preferences can be found at http://www.dicosmo.org/Articles/usercriteria.pdf. The default value is -count(down),-count(removed),-notuptodate(solution),-count(new) for upgrades, and -count(removed),-notuptodate(request),-count(down),-notuptodate(changed),-count(changed),-notuptodate(solution) otherwise.

--cudf=FILENAME

Debug option: Save the CUDF requests sent to the solver to FILENAME-<n>.cudf.

--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 if it exists and exit.

--help[=FMT] (default=pager)

Show this help in format FMT (pager, plain or groff).

--no-base-packages

Do not install base packages (useful for testing purposes). This is equivalent to setting $OPAMNOBASEPACKAGES to a non-empty string.

--no-self-upgrade

OPAM will replace itself with a newer binary found at OPAMROOT/opam if present. This disables this behaviour.

-q, --quiet

Be quiet when installing a new compiler.

--root=ROOT (absent=~/.opam)

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

--safe

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.

--solver=CMD

Specify the name of the external dependency solver. The default value is aspcud

--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, --no-aspcud

Force use of internal heuristics, even if an external solver is available.

-v, --verbose

Be more verbose. Show output of all sub-commands. This is equivalent to setting $OPAMVERBOSE to "true".

--version

Show version information.

-y, --yes

Disable interactive mode and answer yes to all questions that would otherwise be asked to the user. This is equivalent to setting $OPAMYES to "true".

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

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

OPAMCRITERIA specifies user preferences for dependency solving.The default value is -count(removed),-notuptodate(request),-count(down),-notuptodate(changed),-count(changed),-notuptodate(solution). See also option --criteria

OPAMCURL can be used to define an alternative for the 'curl' command-line utility to download files.

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

OPAMEXTERNALSOLVER see option `--solver'.

OPAMJOBS sets the maximum number of parallel workers to run.

OPAMNOASPCUD see option `--no-aspcud'.

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

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

OPAMSOLVERTIMEOUT change the time allowance of the internal solver.

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

OPAMUPGRADECRITERIA specifies user preferences for dependency solving when performing an upgrade. Overrides OPAMCRITERIA in upgrades if both are set.The default value is -count(down),-count(removed),-notuptodate(solution),-count(new). See also option --criteria

OPAMUTF8MSGS use nice UTF8 characters in OPAM messages.

OPAMVERBOSE see option `--verbose'.

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.

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

OPAMYES see option `--yes'.
