I tried to follow the very first examples but the crates on crates from versions 0.78 to 0.82 fail to build:

Try this
cargo new --lib hello_ockam && cd hello_ockam && mkdir examples && cargo add ockam && cargo build

and you'd get this error

If anyone wants to build those versions you can first cherry-pick this commit and run cargo build
