Re: [MirageOS-devel] Build error in the introduction tutorial

> eval $(opam config env)

thanks for the hint, I figured it out:
I began the tutorial in a simple bash terminal
- because I didn't want to be blocked by a long compilation time (you
never know) I've openend a tmux session and started the
console-configuration there.
- In tmux I use the Fish shell, which doesn't inherit bashs environment
variables. I should have to  initialize the opam environment again
(which seems to be broken for Fish, btw.).

Thanks for the suggestion. I will look into that.
