After finishing an obligation from an equations definition I got this warning:

Solve Obligations tactic returned error: Proof is not complete.
This will become an error in the future
[solve_obligation_error,tactics]
Functional induction principle could not be proved automatically, it is left as an obligation.

However there are no obligations left and everything seems to work fine. Should I be worried?

It's probably the functional induction principle that it doesn't manage to derive.

If you add the (noind) option (I'm not sure this is the name), does it work?

The options are:

#[derive(equations=yes,no, eliminator=yes|no)]

If you set either or both to no, it might work.

Nice that worked!

What is going on though?

After you finish a definition, Equations will try to derive equalities corresponding to your clauses (the equations option) and a functional elimination principle (which you would use with tactics funelim or apply_funelim). Sometimes, it fails at doing either of those and thus you have to deactivate it.

Ah ok thanks. I guess adding an informative error message is TODO

I mean the error does say

Functional induction principle could not be proved automatically, it is left as an obligation.

But it is not left as an obligation it seems.
