Hi

I'm trying to install cohttp on Ubuntu 14.04. However it is not working so
well, as can be seen from this screenshot:

I started from a pretty much unaltered installation of Ubuntu 14.04. Then I
executed the following commands in order. The last command led to the error.

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install ocaml-nox ocaml-native-compilers ocaml-doc tuareg-mode
ocaml-findlib oasis libpcre-ocaml-dev
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ocaml ocaml-native-compilers camlp4-extra opam
opam
opam list
opam init
eval `opam config env`
opam search cohttp
opam search core
opam update
opam list
opam install cohttp

So, how do I approach figuring out what went wrong? I'm an Ocaml newbie..
Also, where should I report errors like this if it is indeed a bug instead
of a user error?
