Package: ocaml
Version: 4.11.1-3
Severity: important
Tags: patch
Hi,
apparently the "ocaml" since 4.11 does not depend on ocaml-nox-$VERSION
anymore. This has the bad side effect that installing "ocaml" does not
pull "ocaml-nox" anymore, and thus there are no ocaml executables/tools
(including the compiler) available.
The versioned dependency suggests it was resolved by dependencies
before, and I'm not sure why it is not anymore now. A simple patch
(workaround?) is attached to always depend on "ocaml-nox", no matter
what.
Thanks,
