Re: opam/mirage and the dreamplug

[Thomas Gazagnaire <thomas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

opam runs the following command in /root/.opam/repo/dev/git/cstruct.0.3dev:
$ git archive --format=tar --prefix=cstruct.0.3.dev/ HEAD -o cstruct.0.3.dev.tar

maybe git is not in the right path for OPAM ? /root/.opam/log/commandXXX.info 
stores the environment in which the command run (obviously, need to replace the 
XXX by the right number).
