Re: how to change OCAMLCURL from curl to wget?

Hi Venk!

A good diagnostic is need prior to take any action to sovle the issue.
Try to understand the error message that you get.

Best regards

PS: removing don't always mean to delete.
A prudent way is to first rename or moving it to another directory so
that you can put the thing back if needed.
