Install instructions do not work, due to missing dune 3.16.1 -- have to use script from main instead #489
Description
I'm getting the same error as in https://proofassistants.stackexchange.com/a/5162, with dune-configurator 3.16.1 unavailable:
===== INSTALL PREREQUISITES (PARALLEL) =====
[ERROR] Package dune-configurator has no version 3.16.1.
This can be worked around as in the above link by cloning main instead and using the script from there.
However I think that the instructions at https://github.com/rocq-prover/platform/blob/2025.01.0/doc/README_Linux.md#installation-by-compiling-from-sources-using-scripts--opam (linked from https://rocq-prover.org/install should be updated.
They currently say:
Get the Coq Platform scripts via either of these methods
Most users should download and extract https://github.com/coq/platform/archive/refs/tags/2025.01.0.zip.
Users which intend to contribute to Coq Platform should use git clone --branch 2025.01.0 https://github.com/coq/platform.git.
However I think neither of those instructions work anymore, the 2025.1.0 branch should probably backport the linked patch (744d339#diff-e37348a52bd0b2342185b88de810e2461ce134ec8e1e25a79737619ef79c197c?), otherwise new users will get an installation error.
