No, you are wrong, Pierre Weis and Jun did the effort to port it to the latest
ocam lversions, and announced it on the ocaml list. I wanted to package it
after that (especially as some japanese users seemed to like it), but failed
due to a problem during the build. I did not manage to find the reason
quickly, nor did Jun, but i didn't try much, and it works on other systems, so
there should be no reason it don't works, and if there is, it most probably is
a bug elsewhere in the debian packages. Also it is an investigation problem, i
am sure Jun will be willing to look at it once we isolate the problem and he
can reproduce it.
