I reported the confusion you had with `opam update` upstream:

  https://github.com/ocaml/opam/issues/2951

Also, note that there is now a webforum to ask questions about OCaml, that
you should feel free to use instead of the beginners-list if you prefer its
interface (there is a "Learning" tag to be used for questions on learning
the language):

  https://discuss.ocaml.org/

Of course you are also free to keep using the mailing-list if you prefer.
