Package: ocaml-nox Version: 4.05.0-10 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I just realized that ocaml-nox is the reason I still have camlp4 installed on my system even though I have no intentions of using it. In fact, the upstream website at https://github.com/ocaml/camlp4 says: > Since 2017, Camlp4 is not actively maintained anymore, and only receives > occasional fixes for compatibility with new OCaml versions. Maintainers of > Camlp4-using projects are actively encouraged to switch to other systems. Sounds like it is time to drop the Recommends: camlp4 from ocaml-nox?
