We are pleased to announce the minor release of [opam 2.1.2](https://github.com/ocaml/opam/releases/tag/2.1.2).

This opam release consists of [backported](https://github.com/ocaml/opam/issues/4920) fixes, including:

- Fallback on `dnf` if `yum` does not exist on RHEL-based systems ([#4825](https://github.com/ocaml/opam/pull/4825))

- Use `--no-depexts` in CLI 2.0 mode. This further improves the use of opam 2.1 as a drop-in replacement for opam 2.0 in CI, for example with setup-ocaml in GitHub Actions. ([#4908](https://github.com/ocaml/opam/pull/4908))

To upgrade simply run:

```auto
bash -c "sh <(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ocaml/opam/master/shell/install.sh) --version 2.1.2"

```
