Topic: Install from source error

I'm trying to build Equations from source but I'm getting the following error:

File "src/equations_common.ml", line 45, characters 2-19:
45 |   Goptions.optstage = Interp;
       ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Error: Unbound record field Goptions.optstage
make[2]: *** [src/equations_common.cmx] Error 2
make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2

I'm building branch master on OS X 12.5 with the following settings:

The Coq Proof Assistant, version 8.16.1
compiled with OCaml 4.14.0

Am I missing something? I just did ./configure.sh and make

the master branch of Equations is only compatible with Coq's master branch (or coq.dev opam package)

Karl Palmskog (Feb 09 2023 at 15:59):

we recommend using the latest release for 8.16, or if this is somehow not an option, the 8.16 branch in the Equations repo will compile with 8.16.1.

ok, perfect, thanks :ok: .
Just wondering but the error comes from the .ml file, how does the Coq version have anything to do with that?

Coq’s API changes incompatibly between major versions
