Same here.

Android restricts access to this system file. Proot is not a magic bullet.

Android restricts access to this system file. Proot is not a magic bullet.

Even if I have root privileges? I' ve given $ termux root permission.

[twaik]

AFAIK proot runs as regular user, not root. So it still has no access.

rm .opam -rf && opam init --disable-sandboxing. That avoids opam using bwrap, and avoids this failure.
