Which rock version do you have? (rock -V)

[CoderPuppy]

rock -V: rock 0.9.8 codename columbia, built on Fri Dec 27 23:07:00 2013

[nddrylliog]

For now, sam requires rock 0.9.9.

Installing rock 0.9.9 is relatively easy:

cd path/to/rock
make backup
git checkout 99x
make clean safe

Then rock -V should report rock 0.9.9

@CoderPuppy did you get sam to work? Can this issue be closed?

[CoderPuppy]

Oh yeah. It works now.

Any ideas? It would be great if someone could update the install guide (http://ooc-lang.org/install/) :-)

[nddrylliog]

@dubst3pp4 In that case, it's a bit different.. in 0.9.9, vendor-prefix appeared, but apparently you had rock from earlier. Here's what you should try:

cd /usr/local/rock
rm -rf libs # old way to distribute the GC
make boehmgc # install boehm-gc in vendor-prefix
make safe # compile new rock from old rock

Since 0.9.9 is very much bleeding edge and, as you've noticed, you're running into different problems because of the time you checked out the repo. There's a lot of new stuff in 0.9.9, when it comes out (ie. when it's merged with master), release notes will contain instructions to upgrade from 0.9.8 .. and the install from scratch instructions will still be the same :)

Thank you very much, this worked :-)

@dubst3pp4 for next time: try not to comment on old/closed issues, except if it's the exact same problem :) opening a new issue is cheap. Glad you got it all worked out!
