Installation error when running ciao build

[sneharamm0han]

Hi,

I am trying to install the Ciao system. I am on MacOS, and have been following the instructions at https://ciao-lang.org/ciao/build/doc/ciao.html/Install.html#Installing%20dependencies

However, I am getting the following error when running ciao build:

{ERROR: absolute_file_name/7, arg 1 - existence error: source_sink:exfilter(exfilter_lpdoc) does not exist}
ERROR: {Program ended with failure}
{ERROR: No handle found for thrown exception error(return_code(2,pcall(/Users/sneha/.ciaoroot/v1.22.0-m7/build/bin/lpdoc,[--output_dir=/Users/sneha/.ciaoroot/v1.22.0-m7/build/doc,-t,all,/Users/sneha/.ciaoroot/v1.22.0-m7/ciaopp/doc/tutorials/SETTINGS.pl],[env([CIAOALIASPATH=,CIAOROOT=/Users/sneha/.ciaoroot/v1.22.0-m7,CIAOHDIR=/Users/sneha/.ciaoroot/v1.22.0-m7/build/eng/ciaoengine/include,CIAOENGINE=/Users/sneha/.ciaoroot/v1.22.0-m7/build/eng/ciaoengine/objs/DARWINaarch64/ciaoengine])])),process_join/1)}

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Thanks for reporting! You used the "curl https://ciao-lang.org/boot -sSfL | sh -s -- get devenv" method, right? The error appears in the generation of the documentation: there is a missing bundle dependency. We are about to upgrade the Ciao version and we will fix that but in the meantime there is fortunately an easy fix: use the interactive method "curl https://ciao-lang.org/boot -sSfL | sh", hitting enter for all the questions. Please let us know if you find any problems.

(If you are instead building from source then you can do 'ciao build --bin' which will skip building the documentation.)

(This should be fixed in the new 1.23 release)
